Student Evaluation of Instructor
Given mid-October through mid-November and late February through late March, student evaluations of faculty are administered per the Implementing Procedure for Policy 4.11. The evaluation will be opened to students through the student portal. The Office for Academic Affairs will notify faculty that the survey has been deployed . Faculty should then inform students of the process and deadlines, and encourage them to go online and participate.
The anonymous online evaluation is intended to aid instructors to see their strengths, as well as areas for improvement, from a student perspective. Following is a listing of the questions given to students:

Student Evaluation - Part III

When answering the questions listed in Part III, please consider the following areas for comment, if applicable:
