  6. How group interaction helps students learn better Group interaction Students’ comments...“I think this module was perfect…Probably one of the best teachers we have had so far…Best thing isthat this module gave us a new dimension of knowledge...I like the teaching style of the Professor. There were case studies after each discussion and everyone was required to participate. Also, his case studies can be applied in real life scenarios…His discipline is quite new to me, and I did learn a lot from the class. I would like to commend his teaching method of engaging the students in class. It breaks the monotony of a straight lecture and allows the students to read materials relevant to the subject, and apply what was taught at that very moment...In terms of the assessment, the task given was reflective of what was taught in the module.” Learning A1 - You found this module intellectually challenging and stimulating.

  7. How insufficient group interaction affects learning… Group interaction Students’comments... “The course by the title ought to be interesting with valuable information. Nevertheless, I tend to believe that it was the worst course so far…The course wasinteresting but the way it was taught was not convincing…I recommend to improve the course by involvingmany examples of the application of market research inchemical industry sector.” Learning A1 - You found this module intellectually challenging and stimulating.

  8. It is time to bring alive the place of universities as centres of critique, and not to service the status quo, but to challenge it in the spirit of justice, creativity, imagination, human welfare, the free play of the mind or alternative visions of the future. This will not be changed by increasing the state funding of the humanities as opposed to slashing it to nothing. We will change it by insisting that a critical reflection on human values and principles should be central to everything that goes on in universities. Terry Eagleton(paraphrased)
