    E. Staff Student Liaison Committee
    Explanation
    As a Course Rep, you should attend meetings that are directly related to your role and responsibilities. The Student Assembly may not be directly relevant to your role as a Course Rep, as it is more focused on broader student issues. However, the Congress, Board of Studies, and Staff Student Liaison Committee are all meetings where you can actively contribute as a Course Rep, as they deal with academic matters, student representation, and communication between staff and students.

    Correct Answer(s)
    B. Department Academic Committee
    D. Congress
    Explanation
    As a Department Rep, it is important to attend meetings that directly relate to your department and its activities. The Department Academic Committee is specifically focused on academic matters within the department, so attending this meeting would allow the Department Rep to stay informed and provide input on important academic decisions. Congress, on the other hand, is a general meeting where representatives from different departments come together to discuss various matters. Attending Congress would give the Department Rep the opportunity to network with other representatives and gain a broader understanding of university-wide issues.

It is a formal gathering where representatives from different student unions come together to discuss and make decisions on important matters that affect the student body as a whole. This assembly holds significant authority and plays a crucial role in shaping the policies and actions of the student unions.

    Explanation
    In this situation, the best course of action would be to raise the issue directly with the lecturer. By addressing the problem with the lecturer, it allows for open communication and the opportunity for them to adjust their volume during lectures. This approach is more direct and efficient compared to raising it at a Student Staff Liasion Committee or taking it up as a formal complaint, which may involve more bureaucracy and potentially strain the relationship between the lecturer and students.

    • B.

    Explanation
    This statement is not true because it is not appropriate to take any issue to any meeting.

    It is not acceptable to be rude back to a staff member who speaks rudely to you. Responding rudely would only escalate the situation and create a negative environment.

Feedback is crucial for growth and development, and without it, there is no opportunity for improvement or resolution of any problems.
