Learners can now submit feedback when completing a course


Now that we have a library of courses available on Learn.WordPress.org, it would be beneficial to gather feedback from learners who have completed a course. Starting in June, a survey has been added to all courses to collect such feedback. The feedback from students will inform the following aspects of courses going forward:

  1. Evaluation of course effectiveness: This feedback provides insights into the effectiveness of the course content. It helps instructors understand what course elements are working well and what areas may need improvement. 
  2. Course refinement and improvement: This feedback allows course creators to make necessary adjustments and improvements to the course materials, structure, and delivery. 
  3. Identification of technical issues: This feedback can help identify any technical problems they encountered during the course, such as broken links, video/audio issues, or difficulties accessing information. 
  4. Celebrating learning: This feedback can be a way to acknowledge and appreciate the positive aspects of a course. It also reinforces the elements that are working effectively and can serve as a foundation for further improvements in future course iterations.

Learners will be able to efficiently and quickly provide their unique feedback through a short, three-question survey at the end of each course.  Feedback will be reviewed monthly by Admin Faculty members, and they will create a GitHub Issue for actionable feedback to be handled by either the course creator or a Faculty Content Creator if the original creator is not available. 

Insights gained will be incorporated into our ongoing efforts to deliver excellent learning experiences.

Survey questions from Crowdsignal

Questions:

  1. On a scale of 1-5, how valuable was this course to you?
  2. What are the one or two most valuable things you learned?
  3. What could we add or change?
