Module Evaluation

Today I completed a module evaluation form and wanted to make a few comments regarding the module. I found this module stimulating and informative but at the same time felt that by having to choose only one of three subject areas mid way through the module difficult to appreciate as I would have liked to have increased my knowledge in all three areas. This is obviously my own personal opinion.

I gave an example in one of my earlier blog entries that I found the subject matter delivered by presentation groups from other sections on the module informative and quite frankly that left me wanting to know more about those subject areas.

The presentation group that went before the group presentation I was in covered Jack the Ripper and in particular the suspects as to who Jack the Ripper really was.

I enjoyed the style of the three lectures as they were able to introduce humour to serious subject matters without being crude which made the learning experience more memorable. I did find it a little disappointing in the 'Suicide Cults' group that there would be students talking at the same time the lecturer was talking and even though being asked to stop talking or to contribute to the group as a whole they often just continued talking which spoils it for the rest of the students and for the lecturer. However, this has also happened in other modules such as Being Bad.

Overall I am glad I have taken the module but now want to know more about the groups I was not involved in (Social Deviance and Jack the Ripper).
