Results of the poll - hours per week spent on the course

The poll recently carried out on the course blog was set up to find out how many hours per week participants in the course were spending studying in the course. There were nine (n=9) out of a possible 15 particpants who responded, a 60% response rate. The results to the question follow. For some reason, parts of the grid in the table have been lost. The table was organised in Word, and pasted into PaintShop Pro, then saved as a jpeg.

This is one way you can gather descriptive data and report on it as part of a formative evaluation during the running of a course.

Question - how many hours per week are you spending on average on the course?

I wonder if people who responded have any comments to make about the number of hours they are spending in study.
  • Is the amount of time spent adequate and/or acceptable to you? Please explain.
  • Is the time you are spending sufficient to help you understand the topics and keep up? Please expand.
