Results of a survey of over 5,000 student respondents on the elements of the best and worst classroom experiences are now available.  


The data point unequivocally to the conclusion that for most students, the key variable in making a great educational experience was the subject matter of the class and quality of the teaching.  Though not completely irrelevant, the use of technology, quality of other students, class size, and quality of teaching assistants were considerably less important than the main factors.

 

In an increasingly competitive enrolment environment, information like this is critical to institutions.  From a strategic perspective, these data suggest that institutions need to be asking themselves what processes are in place to ensure that course topics  engage students and what processes exist to ensure that professors have the best possible communication and pedagogical skills.
