Course evaluations offered online

Daily Staff

The Center for Excellence in Learning and Teaching and Information Technology Services is now offering academic departments the option to do their end-of-semester course evaluations online.

Results of the surveys will be made available to instructors almost immediately after they submit their final grades, rather than a few months into the next semester like with written evaluations.

If professors can get their evaluations back sooner, they will be able to make necessary course changes before their next semester starts.

Forty departments are participating in the online evaluations, and some colleges have decided to conduct evaluations exclusively online.
