Undergraduate students in their first, second, and final years were invited to participate in the 2023-24 SLEQ-UG, resulting in a total of more than 5000 responses.

Highlights
- Positive patterns were maintained over the years of SLEQ-UG administration from the perspectives of first, second, and final year students regarding Attainment of University Educational Aims, Teaching and Learning Environment, and Overall Satisfaction (Figure 1).
- Notable gains in Attainment of University Educational Aims were found through the longitudinal tracking of students who completed the SLEQ-UG in both their first and final years (Figure 2).
- Final-year respondents, continuing the upward pattern from previous years, consistently reported over 80% agreement on their Interdisciplinary Learning Experience and Innovative Learning Experience throughout their university studies.
- Undergraduate students highlighted keywords such as “friend”, “different”, and “opportunity” as the best aspects of their university experience. (Figures 3).
Detailed results at the institutional, Faculty, and curriculum levels are made available to Faculties to support the review and enhancement of their teaching and learning processes. Please refer to the information here.
