External Student Engagement Surveys Sample Clauses

External Student Engagement Surveys. ‌ NSS 2020 was already in progress when the UK lockdown occurred in March 2020, and the University will continue to participate in NSS 2021. The University’s improved position in NSS 2019 was broadly maintained in NSS 2020, amid an overall decline in scores across the sector for both overall satisfaction and average % agree. Key figures in relation to our institutional performance are as follows: • Average % Agree score (across 27 questions): 76.5%, ranking us 86th in the UK (marginally down from 76.9% and 83rd in NSS 2019). • Overall Satisfaction: 84.4%, ranking us 45th in UK (down from 85.5% and 35th in NSS 2019) The two lowest scoring questions in NSS 2020 were Assessment and Feedback (65.7%) and Student Voice (72.8%). The University Committee agreed, in September 2020, that these would be the two key areas of focus for the institution in 2020/21, rather than the previous approach of trying to progress six to ten different action areas. This approach recognises the ongoing impact of Covid-19 and the need to continue to adapt and respond. The University participated in the 2020 Postgraduate Research Experience Survey (PRES). In contrast to 2019’s PRES participation rates of 107 HEIs, in 2020, only 45 UK HEIs participated in the 2020 survey and results were returned for only 38 of those. We saw a significant increase in participation in 2020, with 366 HWU PGR students completing the survey (34% response rate), up from 209 in 2019. The University was delighted with the improved performance in PRES 2020, reflecting the extent to which the Research Degrees Committee has focused systematically on enhancing the PGR student learning experience. The key findings from PRES 2020 are as follows: • Overall satisfaction score of 76.2% (up 5.35% from 2019) • The results from every section of PRES 2020 saw an increase on our 2019 results • Four sections returned highest ever results since HWU first participated in PRES in 2013: Supervision, Research Skills, Professional Development and Progression and Assessment (the latter being HWU’s lowest scoring area in PRES 2019) • The highest areas of satisfaction were: Supervision; Research Skills; Professional Development • Supervision had the largest improvement compared to 2019 results, rising up 9.6% The Research Degrees Committee, which has responsibility for PRES and actions taken in response, has introduced an action planning process similar to that used for taught surveys by the University Committee for Learning and Tea...

  • Problem/ Solution Statement Problem California’s forest health crisis is an emergency of unprecedented scope and scale, with disastrous implications for the state’s environment, economy, energy systems, and human life. Unlike essentially all other technologies and solutions proposed to respond to the crisis, gasification has the potential to process forest waste in a way that extracts value and sequesters a large portion of its carbon. Before the recipient’s development of the pre- commercial Powertainer technology, no one had developed gasification technology that could economically respond to the problem. As a result, there have not yet been any large-scale deployments of distributed, commercial-scale gasification technology. The acceleration of tree mortality and persistent drought conditions make finding solutions to this problem more critical with each passing day.
