The table shows how the proportion of students giving high ratings for different aspects of a university changed in 2000, 2005 and 2010.
Overall, ranking rates for teaching quality, print resources, and electronic resources saw increases of varying degrees, with the last one experiencing the biggest growth. By contrast, evaluation of building and teaching materials did not record any changes, while the one for the range of modules offered decreased over time.
Starting at 65%, teaching quality rates decreased marginally to 63% in 2005, a figure that then increased notably to 69% by the final year. Meanwhile, rankings for print resources saw an almost upward pattern. Ratings rose markedly from 84% in 2000 to 89% in 2005, before falling negligibly by 88% in 2010. Moreover, good rankings for electronic resources started at 45%, a figure that then climbed up considerably to 72% after 5 years. In 2010, its figures ended up the same as print resources, 88%.
Conversely, building/teaching materials remained steady at 77% throughout the period. While rates for the range of modules offered followed a downward pattern. Starting at 32%, rating levels dropped slightly to 30%, before falling again to 27% in 2010.
