Quality of Teaching Student Focus Groups

A student with long dark hair raises their hand to participate in the classroom. The educator, standing in front of a chalkboard with writing on it, points towards the student. Surrounding students are seated, facing the front, all eager to contribute to their educational journey.

Your experiences in the classroom matter.

WUSA is hosting a series of student focus groups to better understand undergraduate experiences with teaching, learning, and academic success at the University of Waterloo. These conversations will explore topics such as course content, instructor engagement, learning expectations, degree requirements, and opportunities to provide feedback on your educational experience.

This is your opportunity to share what’s working well, what challenges you’ve encountered, and what changes you would like to see. Insights gathered through these discussions will help inform future advocacy efforts related to teaching and learning.

Each session is limited to 15 students and will last approximately 90 minutes. Participants will receive a $30 e-gift card as a thank you for their time. Current WUSA officers and board members are welcome to participate but are not eligible for compensation.

Focus group schedule: 
  • Engineering: October 19 at 5:30 p.m. – SLC 1103
  • Science: October 20 at 5:30 p.m. – SLC 1103
  • Arts: October 26 at 11:00 a.m. – Online on Teams
