Comparison
Course reps vs whole-cohort feedback
A comparison for quality teams and programme leaders of two channels of student voice: elected course representatives and direct feedback from the whole cohort. Reps bring a mandate, early warning and judgement. Whole-cohort collection shows how widespread an issue is and reaches quieter students. Use it to design a committee process where reps argue from evidence. Koji can collect the cohort-wide part through short AI-moderated interviews.
What's in this comparison
What course reps do well
- Raise problems mid-module, while there is time to act
- Explain the context behind a complaint
- Speak with an elected, collective mandate
- Take part in deciding what changes
What whole-cohort feedback adds
- Reaches students who would never approach a rep
- Shows how often an issue comes up across the cohort
- Gives reps evidence to bring to the committee
- Keeps what students said in their own words
