Description:
Student ratings of instruction, also known as “course evaluations,” are the
most common way students provide feedback about faculty teaching and course
design and delivery, regardless of discipline, program, degree awarded or
institution type. Student feedback is collected in order to promote continuous
quality improvement and to remain compliant with University or Accreditation
standards. Despite being the most common way to gather student feedback,
they remain one of the most scrutinized and debated topics in higher education,
especially related to their use in annual performance reviews and
promotion/tenure decisions. This session will review the best practices
for designing and administering course evaluations and for using student
feedback for future course improvement and for documenting teaching
effectiveness.
