Teaching on online classes negatively impacted learning due to less engagement

I love the course. The lecturers are so helpful and supportive. We are given amazing opportunities to learn and develop in our professional practice. We were lucky enough to get first hand experience in some areas of training which is priceless for improving our development

Physiotherapy at UEA is packed with content and opportunities to expand your knowledge and improve transferable skills which can be used in the professional world. Lots of contact time allows for a very hands on experience which has not only improved my confidence with patients but sets us apart from other courses that are not as practical heavy.

poor support from uni, very full on course. Everything due very close together and not thought out

Best: we have the opportunity to learn in placements Worst: online classes are not engaging and hard to focus during online lessons

I wish the course was more in person and more interactive

I love Norwich so much but not everywhere is easily accessible for placement when I don’t drive

I love my room but it’s not worth the price at all, definitely not a homely environment

Online teaching is very good. Lecturer support very vague and not always supportive.

I absolutely love the course I am doing. I wouldn’t change any of my decisions When I began my course majority was online due to covid. However the university tried to give as many face to face lectures as well as online lectures. All online lectures where recorded which was really helpful when revising and recapping Practical and simulation is really helpful at uni to learn skills and put my skills into practice.

My academic advisor has not been very useful on my course and I have needed to access UEA support, which luckily has been great. There is a lot of online learning which I don't see going anywhere soon. This is ok if you work well this way which some don't. The course generally consists of theory blocks and then placements at hospitals/community nursing. The theory consists of online learning on a Monday directed study Tuesday, online lectures Wednesday morning and face to face seminars Thursday. Friday can be study days or sometimes practical skill days. Most lecturers are good and lectures are interesting ,especially when they invite service users to tell their story which they often do. I have studied at another University and this one is better at preparing you for literature searching and research & assignments.

The UEA campus feels safe and inclusive. Their are lots of diferent nationalities that study here. Location is a bit out from city centre but a short bus ride away. They also have the scooters and e bikes to use too. Lots of nice cafe's in Norwich and a pretty place to live.

My course has been really good so far and my placement was really well set up with good communication. With my disability I have found it hard to focus in online learning so that has definitely been a struggle but I have been sure to make the most of in-class teaching time. I feel so luck to have experienced all that I have so far.

I dont personally live in Norwich as I commute however Norwich can be expensive at times but is not expensive compared to other cities in the UK! The public transport can be unreliable however a lot of my friends rely on it and still manage to attend all of their classes even if the busses are running behind.
