About this page
Main findings from user sessions held with six secondary students from Aotea College and Wellington High in July 2015. . (Acknowledge some degree of bias here.)
Key points
- Don't understand our terminology, including 'courses' and 'programmes'.
- Want to know 'how it works' in terms of putting a degree together.
- Want to see courses they'd study early on. But very confused by info on courses (eg, on subject pages) - especially points and course codes.
- Information on employment not a major focus (this is a different finding from the TEC research: Info for Learners).
- Nav labels 'Study at Vic' and 'Life at Vic' well understood.
- Quicklinks commonly used (to access Course finder). Note that students may see this as a finder of subjects or degree information.
