SFQ Report Types
After the data have been collected, reports are generated and can be accessed online. Teaching personnel are given access to SFQ reports only AFTER they have submitted their course grades.
AQA produces the following types of SFQ reports to meet different stakeholders' needs:
| Report Types | Contents | Who can access | When can access | Where to access | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frequency tables and charts | Means and standard deviations | Student written comments | ||||
| Teaching Personnel Report (Provisional) Note 1 | All multiple-choice questions | Teaching personnel statistics for all multiple-choice questions | All open-ended questions | Course teaching personnel, Department Heads / Program Directors and Unit Managers |

Notes:
1. The results shown on the Teaching Personnel Report (Provisional) may differ from the final report.
2. Since these reports contain aggregate statistics (i.e. course, department, school and university level), it takes some time to complete the statistics calculation and report generation. In addition, as the data capture period for SFQ surveys often extends beyond the end of the term, the aggregate statistics in the reports will be subject to minor changes during the first month after the reports are released.
