Which aspects of this course were most positive?
 Super Enjoyable Course. Had so much fun this semester in the course.
 The most helpful aspects were the well organised full content uploaded to learn – thus if I was unable to attend a lecture I was able to still listen to the lectures, view the powerpoint slides, and access the articles etc. recommended for further reading very easily.
 Pre lecture quizzes.
 Lectures and tutorials.
 Feedback provided from the pre lecture quizzes and from the tutorial work.
 All the practice questions.
 Tutorials and review lectures to go over calculations and practice exam questions.

How could this course be enhanced to assist your learning?
 The course was so well organised and delivered, it doesn’t need any changes. Thanks 
 Addition of another form of assessment, adding a midterm assessment. We added a midcourse test for assess term 3 content.
