Questionnaire

Age? 19

Sex? Female

What is your degree subject (both if joint)? English

Does ‘Being Bad’ relate well to the other modules you are taking? No

If so, how? And if not, why not? y other modules are far more factual based, where as this is thinking about issues for ourselves.

Have you found ‘Being Bad’ too demanding, too easy, or at an appropriate level? An appropriate level

Do you think the list of topics covered on the module was appropriate? Yes.

Are there any topics not included in the module that you would like to see included? Maybe prostitution, as many people had something to say about it in the blogs.

Do you think that the format for classes has worked well? Yes

What did you think of the module team? Great, all very appropriate for the topic they lectured about.

Do you think it would have been better to have had more:

Small group discussions? No - people would rarely talk about the topic

Discussion and debate among the class as a whole? Maybe - although students may be reluctant to participate

Information and talk from lecturers? yes

The approach taken in the module is interdisciplinary (drawing on perspectives from English Literature, Film Studies, Creative Writing, Philosophy, Media Studies and Politics): do you think this a useful way of approaching the topics covered in the module? Yes because all the topics covered relate to other subjects.

Do you think that interdisciplinary modules are a good idea? Yes because the different perspectives often help us with our other modules.

Do you think you have benefited from the interdisciplinary approach taken in the module? Yes.

Would you like to see more modules that cover this kind of subject matter? Yes, because there's something everybody can relate to; the topics feature heavily in our lives.

Are you planning to take the follow-up module PH2004 ‘It Shouldn’t Be Allowed’ at level 2? I haven't decided yet.

Would you recommend ‘Being Bad’ to a friend? Yes.

Do you think that the blogs (web logs) were a good idea? Yes because everybody can share their opinion about topics that they feel strongly about.

What did you think of the other assessments (e.g. would it be better to have one longer assessment rather than two shorter ones?)? I preferred having two shorter ones.

What have you learned from the module? Some of the reasons as to why people do certain things.

What parts of the module have you found most useful and why? The blogs, because reading other students entries initiated my own thoughts.

What parts do you think were a waste of time and why? Some of the lecture topics, such as 'bandits'. Whilst it was quite interesting it didn't seem relevant to society today.

Are there any other comments you wish to make regarding ‘Being Bad’? No.
