[OK-AIR] Student rating of instruction

[Ray Dillman]

Hello Cia.

  *   Do you have a common form that is used for all classes?
	Our University has two colleges (traditional and adult) and each college
uses a common form.  The two forms are very similar but word questions
according to the college the course 	falls under.
  *   Is the process done on paper or online or some combination?
	Since fall 2016, the process for both colleges is done online.  Prior to
fall 2016, our traditional college used paper end of course evaluations.
  *   Do you survey students in every class every semester?
	Yes.
  *   Can you share response rates for each of the formats (online vs.
paper)?
	The response rates for the two colleges are different.  For the adult
college, response rates for the past three years is 20%.  For the
traditional college, the online submission rate for 	FA 16 and SP 17 is 65%.
When we used paper copies, the response rate was 75%.
  *   Is there an institutional policy about how much student feedback plays
into reappointment, tenure, and promotion decisions?
	No.  Faculty do present their responses during their annual performance
review but we do not have a policy concerning those presentations.
  *   Other things I should have asked and didn’t.
	We went to all-online responses for streamlining, accuracy, and lower
overhead purposes.  Additionally, online responses allow for us to provide
student responses to faculty 	members as soon as grades are posted.
Response rates will suffer but our belief is that since student surveys are
indirect assessments, they are not as important in determining 	faculty
effectiveness as whether or not students are meeting their program's
learning outcomes.

Friends,

If you have a moment or two, could you provide a bit of information about
how you gather student input on instruction?


  *   Do you have a common form that is used for all classes?
  *   Is the process done on paper or online or some combination?
  *   Do you survey students in every class every semester?
  *   Can you share response rates for each of the formats (online vs.
paper)?
  *   Is there an institutional policy about how much student feedback plays
into reappointment, tenure, and promotion decisions?
  *   Other things I should have asked and didn’t.

Any information you can provide will be appreciated.

Ta,

Cia
