Cover Sheet
Dr Martin Macauley, College Quality Officer
Brief description of the paper
The paper contains a summary of the under- and postgraduate annual monitoring reports from the College of Science & Engineering.
Action Requested
ASC is asked to consider the issues raised in the report.
The College of Science & Engineering would particularly like to highlight the following:
- Simplify the Annual Monitoring Report template into 4 sections
- previous unresolved issues,
- current problems within the school and beyond school,
- good practice and
- comments.
- Design the forms (Annual Monitoring Report, School Annual Monitoring Summary and College Annual Monitoring Summary) to improve linkages between them.
- Faster turn round time of Annual Monitoring Reports and earlier inclusion of CAMS in the ASC annual timetable
- Direct report of infrastructure issues to Estates and Buildings in April or May
- Visibility of disciplines within Engineering
- Note good practice highlighted such as additional feedback sessions, information provided to external examiners and podcasting of lectures.
