What is your degree subject (both if joint)?
Film Studies
Does ‘Being Bad’ relate well to the other modules you are taking?
yes
If so, how? And if not, why not?
Alot of the behaviours studied in lectures are similar to ones we look at in film studies. There was quite alot of emphasis on bad behaviour in films during the lectures which ties in well to the film studies modules.
Have you found ‘Being Bad’ too demanding, too easy, or at an appropriate level?
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?
No
Do you think that the format for classes has worked well?
Yes
What did you think of the module team?
Generally ok
Do you think it would have been better to have had more:
Small group discussions?
Yes I think people would have been more inclined to talk about their opinions without having to shout them at the lecturer because the lecture theatre is big
Discussion and debate among the class as a whole?
No
Information and talk from lecturers?
No, there was already enough to think about
The approach taken in the module is interdisciplinary (drawing on perspectives from English Literature, Film Studies, Creative Writing, Philosophy, Religious Studies, Media Studies and Politics): do you think this a useful way of approaching the topics covered in the module?
Yes, you get the benefits of using all of the different disciplinarys
Do you think that interdisciplinary modules are a good idea?
yes
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
Are you planning to take the follow-up module PH2004 ‘It Shouldn’t Be Allowed’ at level 2?
No
Would you recommend ‘Being Bad’ to a friend?
Yes
Do you think that the blogs (web logs) were a good idea?
Yes, they are an intersting way of presenting research
What did you think of the other assessments (e.g. would it be better to have one longer assessment rather than two shorter ones?)?
No, it was good having two shorter ones and being able to choose what you wanted to write about
What have you learned from the module?
That people have compleatly different views on what is acceptable behaviour
What parts of the module have you found most useful and why?
Doing the weblogs because it lets you present you work in a clear way and they help with time management because you don't get stuck with one huge piece of work to do all of a sudden
What parts do you think were a waste of time and why?
None of it really
Are there any other comments you wish to make regarding ‘Being Bad’?
Was over-all quite and enjoyable module
