General Information

麻豆区 values quality in the courses it offers its students. End-of-course evaluations provide valuable student feedback and are one of the ways that 麻豆区 works towards maintaining and improving the quality of courses and the student learning experience. Student involvement in this process is critical to enhance the general quality of teaching and learning.

How course evaluations work

  • All 麻豆区 courses with five or more students must be evaluated.

  • For most departments, students have six (6) weeks to complete their evaluations; the default period closes two days after the end of the examination period.

  • Students receive between two (2) and six (6) email reminders, depending on the evaluation period. Efforts from Instructors, Teaching Assistants, Unit Heads, and Student Leaders can be effective in encouraging student participation.

  • Instructors have access to their results after grades are submitted and processed, and the evaluation end date has passed.

  • Students are able to view numerical course evaluation results, provided the instructor has not objected to access and an adequate response rate has been received. We encourage all instructors to complete the online permission form to grant permission to disseminate the numeric results of their course evaluations to students.
