• Must have approval of Dan Rich, Provost, and Maxine Colm, VP Administration, to use online evaluations.

System Availability for Students

• Many CE students and alumni have PINs. If you have CE students (or alumni) who need PINs, tell them to call 831-2727 or preferably, go to Student Services Building to set one. This is something that needs to be done over the phone or in person so we can be sure we are giving the student, and only that student, his/her PIN. This will open up a world of access and online service to them.
  
• Tell your students to go to http://www.udel.edu/course-evals to complete their evaluations between the availability dates provided to you, which are 14 days before the first exam and through midnight the last day of exams. See deadlines on the left.

System Definition

This Course Evaluation system is based on these premises.

• Student access is available to those students officially enrolled in participating course sections.

• Term driven (F W S J).

• Questions are tiered and presented in this order for both instructor and course sections: UD - college - department - special (ex. Honors) - instructor

• Evaluations may include up to 6 instructors per course section as defined on the bottom left of SIS screen 132 under "Instructor SSN" as defined before deadline listed in left column.

• Instructors and administrators may add or change questions until the day before student access begins.

• Evaluations may have one or two sections for instructor and/or course questions.

• An unlimited number of questions may be defined on a evaluation although 20 questions would be considered reasonable (CTE - true?).

• Response scales are provided. See currently used response scales.

• During the window that students may complete evaluations, there will be no changes to the evaluation questions or instructors assigned to that course.

• Student responses are anonymous.

• Instructors may view student responses 15 days after the last exam if 3 or more students responded. Go to the Faculty Course Evaluation web site.

• The department owning the course may ask specific department-level questions. For example, the course evaluation questions for a HIST course can include History department specific questions.

• Colleges may also add college-level questions for course sections for which they are the primary owner including cross-listed courses.

• Evaluations may include University-level questions.

• Only approved administrators/faculty defined in the course evaluation system have access to the evaluation results. This includes department chairs and college deans.

• Professional and Continuing Studies (PCS) is defined in SIS as a college and may add PCS-level questions to course sections for which they are the primary owner. The department owning the course may also ask department-level questions for PCS owned course sections. Instructors may add questions to their course sections if they wish.

• The chair/dean has access to evaluation results for all courses owned by their respective department/college even if one of the faculty members teaching or co-teaching is from another department/college. The faculty, chair and dean from the other department/college will have online access to the evaluation results for their faculty member but can't add department/college level questions to courses for which they are not the primary owner.

• For cross-listed courses, only the primary course college/department owner can add department/college level questions and see all results. The second department can't add questions but can see results for their faculty members. For example, if FREC827 (col=Ag) was cross-listed with ECON827 (col=B&E) and ECON was the primary owner of this cross-list, then B&E and ECON could add questions and see results and FREC could not add department/college questions but could add instructor questions. Faculty can see their own results and chair/deans may see results for their faculty members regardless of who owns the course.
