The CEQ records the opinions of university graduates about aspects of the courses they have recently completed. Questions within the CEQ are cumulated into scales:

• The Good Teaching Scale (GTS)
• The Clear Goals & Standards Scale (CGSS)
• The Appropriate Assessment Scale (AAS)
• The Appropriate Workload Scale (AWS)
• The Generic Skills Scale (GSS)
• The Overall Satisfaction Item (OSI)

In order to increase the ease with which students respond to the CEQ, Macquarie does not collect the full suite of scales available above. Only the GSS, GTS and OSI are collected. Comparative data across disciplines and departments, faculties and with national data may be found from 2007 onwards from this link (OneID login required - available to Macquarie University staff only).
