This unit focuses on developing an understanding of how genomes are organised, how they function within the cell, how molecular medical treatments can be developed, ways in which we can manipulate genomes and utilise their components for a range of purposes including medical, agricultural, and commercial.
Term 1 - 2018 : The overall satisfaction for students in the last offering of this course was 4.6 (on a 5 point Likert scale), based on a 43.9% response rate.
The main theme was that students enjoyed the Unit, particularly in having all the learning materials available from Week 1, and that the Residential School was enjoyable and well organised.
Continue the good work including regular updates to materials.
The only possible theme for consideration for improvement was from two students who commented they would like some non-graded revision quizzes included.
The inclusion of some non-graded quizzes in the Unit could be considered for next year.
A greater variety of study questions will be available for each topic.
