Course Evaluations

Every semester the Center makes available Mid-term and End of Semester evaluation forms designed to provide confidential feedback to faculty. The Best Practices in Using Teaching Evaluation Techniques provides instructions for using the End of Semester form.

Computer Scored Course Evaluations

All course evaluations including the CPD End of Semester evaluation form, department specified forms, forms developed by the instructor to evaluation a particular course can be scored by Joe Neumann in Information Technology Services.  

As described in the Best Practices instructions, it is best to arrange to have someone else (a student worker or colleague) conduct the class evaluations while the instructor is absent from the room. If written comments are requested, provide students with a separate sheet of paper and open-ended questions and arrange to have the comments transcribed by your department's administrative services during the winter or summer break.

During the week before you plan to administer the evaluations, contact Joe Neumann in Information Technology Services to obtain the opscan sheets (pink bubble sheets). He will need to know six digits COURSE ID and how many students are in your class. Students are instructed answer the questions on the opscan sheets. To protect their privacy students do not put their names on the sheets. The opscan sheets are sent to Joe Neumann (Deputy Hall room 205A or Box #10) with the class name and number, the number of questions asked, and the instructor's name. Results will be emailed to the instructor as an excel file.
