What about student evaluations of online courses?

Student evaluation of online courses are conducted using an online survey system controlled by OIR.  Students enrolled in online and hybrid courses receive email messages to their @mscd.edu accounts containing a link to the evaluation tool.  There are many views about the effectiveness of these evaluations and the student response rate is typically low.  Faculty members should discuss issues of student evaluation with their department chair and dean.  The Provost has identified student evaluations of online courses as a key issue and committee work is underway to identify solutions.
