1. |
Announce to students at the beginning of the semester that they are
expected to evaluate your courses using the online SET system. |
|
|
|
|
2. |
Include the URL for the online SET system on your course syllabus:
http://www.webs.uidaho.edu/studentevals. |
|
|
|
|
3. |
Put the link to the online SET system on your course website. The
following URL is for students:
https://vandalweb.uidaho.edu/PROD/owa/twbkwbis.P_WWWLogin. |
|
|
|
|
4. |
Announce to students the window of time that your course will be
open for evaluation. Refer students to the
Evaluation Schedule. Once
the evaluation window has closed, students will not be able to evaluate
your
course. |
|
|
|
|
5. |
Use your class email list to remind students to fill out the course
evaluation. The online SET system automatically sends an initial email,
and reminder emails,
to students, but it has been shown to be more effective coming
directly from the course instructor. |
|
|
|
|
6. |
Inform students of the importance of student input and that course
evaluations are taking seriously by the University of Idaho: |
|
|
• |
Student evaluations are a vital part of the process of
maintaining and improving the quality of students' educational
experiences at the University of Idaho. |
|
|
• |
Constructive responses are used by instructors at the University
of Idaho to guide their changes and improvements to courses. |
|
|
• |
Course evaluations are used in the evaluation process of
University of Idaho faculty. |
|
|
|
|
7. |
Inform students that student identity is confidential in the online
SET system. When a student
submits a course evaluation, his/her identity is separated from the
evaluation he/she submits. A flag is entered into one file which
contains the student's identity. This tells the SET system whether a
student has completed the evaluation for a particular course. The
content of the evaluation is entered into a separate table that does
not include the student's identity. These two tables cannot be linked. |
|
|
|
|
8. |
Bring your class to a
computer lab and allow time for students
to evaluate your course. To reserve a computer lab, send an email to
classroomscheduling@uidaho.edu. |
|
9. |
Announce the procedure for completing a course evaluation, using the
online SET system: |
| |
a. |
Login to the University of Idaho’s Banner Web interface. |
| |
b. |
From here, a choice of classes in which the student is enrolled and
his/her
respective instructor(s) will pop up. |
| |
c. |
Simply choose a course and
instructor and complete the online evaluation. |
