INFORMED CONSENT AND CONFIDENTALITYYou will be asked to complete a consent form if your photograph is to be used in any WelTecliterature.All personal information collected and stored by WelTec is kept confidential.PROGRAMME EVALUATIONWelTec is interested in the experience students have during their time studying. As well asinformal conversations with students, there are three main surveys available to students toexpress their views and rate WelTec services.As a student new to WelTec:In the first few weeks you will be invited to participate in the WelTec EV1 - First Impressionssurvey (www.surveymonkey.com/s/WelTecEV1). This is open to first-time WelTec students,and asks for your rating of and views about your enrolment experience, the initial in-classexperience, and also your experience of our online resource systems, Moodle or LearnZone.During your course time:Your course outline may indicate that your course will have an EV4 - Teacher and CourseEvaluation (http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WelTecEV4) undertaken towards the end. Thishelps the Programme Team to improve the teaching, the course, and the value of theprogramme to students. Note: you will need a specific 'survey event code' supplied by thesurvey administrator to use the EV4 (you can’t do it otherwise).At the end of the programme or year:In the final few weeks of the programme, or year, you will be invited to participate in the EV3- Student Satisfaction Survey (www.surveymonkey.com/s/WelTecEV3). This asks you aboutyour overall experience of WelTec's services, the programme, teaching, skills development,career enhancement, and overall satisfaction.All WelTec surveys are anonymous; we do not ask you for identification. We do however askfor some demographic information (age range, sex, enrolment types, ethnicity, etc.) in orderto make sense of trends for particular student groups.The outcomes of the surveys are reported as aggregated information and tables to theWelTec Academic Committee. The reports are also made available to students.Wellington Institute of Technology - 2013 HV4477 Programme Handbook July 2013Overview and Programme Specific Information Page 19
