PASS Program in Autumn 2011

“That there is no pressure, I can catch up with what I didn’t quite understand after the lecture and tutorial” "Getting the opinions of others and hearing how they interpreted things helped to deepen my own understanding” “Revising content, friendly leader, fun!” “Seeing my understanding improve week after week – it’s great that it’s students helping students" “The interactions between other students guided by a knowledgeable 2nd year” “I understand stats! That is by far what I like most about PASS! The leader was great and she made everyone so comfortable it wasn’t the slightest bit intimidating” “PASS is always in words I can understand!” “The interactive learning style. The changing of activities frequently maintains interest” “I just love it. I feel it’s one of the most useful things I do in this course and that it really helps! I like how fun it is as it makes me more interested and the people are so nice” “The encouragement to discuss questions or problems with each other rather than simply being given the answer” |

“The comfortable learning environment and the enthusiasm of the PASS Leader” “It was student directed. We were able cover content that we were struggling with or required clarification about. PASS is an extremely friendly environment and a way of meeting like minded people in a relaxed atmosphere. It helped to consolidate content and concepts by being given the opportunity to discuss it with other students and to help and be helped” “It is great to have an hour where we can ask questions and just practice things we are having trouble with. I like how our leader asks us what we would like to work on” “How we are encouraged to help other students with concepts that you have a better understanding of, it really helps us make sure we completely understand the content” “It was a good chance to reinforce what I leant in lectures and tutorials. And it was good to get practical advice off other students” “That it is relaxed, I can comfortably ask any questions or problems I’ve been having in the subject and work through them with other students” “Relaxed informal atmosphere and friendly approachable leader” “Being able to assist other students in understanding the subject content and having group discussions to clarify difficult concepts” “PASS are the most valuable hours of uni each week” |
