History Department Response to Student Feedback
HSTY2661 - Medicine and Sex (2007)

Unit Coordinator: Associate Professor Alison Bashford

Reponse to this unit has been very positive.

'One of my favourites. It was great to study history from a medical point of view'

'I thoroughly enjoyed this unit, as it was always fascinating and challenging'

'This has been my facourtie course in my three years at uni. Alison was a brilliant lecturer. I loved it and it made me realise how much I like history'.

This unit of study ranges very widely over time and place, from early modern Europe to late modern Australia. It is an unusual history unit in this respect. The students who liked the unit, appreciate this scope. But some students sought a more focussed approach. In its next version, I will take this feedback on, and will elect to teach fewer areas, in more depth.

Students sought a greater online component to this unit of study. This will certainly appear in its next incarnation.
