Interim Student Course Evaluation Policy

New questions were added to the end-of-semester student course evaluations for all undergraduate, graduate and professional courses beginning with the spring. These evaluations were available online Monday, April 13. The evaluation questions were added to the university-wide section.

Below are the questions that have been added to the course evaluation to specifically acquire student feedback on remote learning.

  1. The curriculum changes made to the course during the remote learning period enabled me to continue learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. (scale of 5-Strongly Agree to 1-Strongly Disagree)
  2. The online learning tools used in this course were sufficient for me to continue learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. (scale of 5-Strongly Agree to 1-Strongly Disagree)
  3. The assessment methods (e.g., tests, quizzes, assignments) used in this course during the COVID-19 pandemic were appropriate. (scale of 5-Strongly Agree to 1-Strongly Disagree)
  4. Please share feedback on your course experience during the COVID-19 pandemic. Your comments on different aspects of the course (such as lectures, virtual sessions, online discussions, course communications, assignments and testing methods) will be appreciated. (free/written response)

These additional questions are required for every evaluation form for Spring (Sessions 1, 5 and 6) and Summer 2020 as mandated from the Office of Provost.

Please review the entire interim course evaluation policy as it gives information about the faculty’s right to accept or mask all or portions of the evaluation. The complete interim course evaluation policy can be found on the Provost’s website under the “Faculty Related Policies” tab.
