SUMMARY:Interpreting and Utilizing Student Feedback for Change: Midcourse Surveys (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Do you know what your students think about your lectures\, discussions\, activities\, or your carefully crafted selected assignments? This workshop is geared toward instructors and explores how to conduct a midcourse survey using Blue or another platform like Google Forms. We provide a discussion of how to employ quantitative and qualitative methods to analyze the data you obtain\, and how you should share this information with your students. Our underlying focus in this session is to help you develop the insight you need to address student concerns and make course adjustments before the term is over.

SUMMARY:Interpreting SIRS and Other Forms of Student Feedback (Virtual Interactive Workshop)
DESCRIPTION:Facilitating Unit: Office of Teaching Evaluation and Assessment Research (OTEAR) \nWhile students are crucial stakeholders in the university’s teaching enterprise\, their feedback should not be mistaken for “evaluation of teaching\,” which is a task for instructional colleagues. Student feedback is an indicator which provides evidence that must be interpreted. In this workshop\, we explore scholarly research on the limitations and potential biases of student feedback. We present strategies for how department chairs and program directors should review\, interpret\, and utilize the likert-scale and comment responses from the Student Instructional Ratings Survey (SIRS) to improve course curriculum\, support faculty\, and evaluate teaching. This workshop is especially beneficial for those who regularly engage with SIRS\, but we also encourage anyone from the university community interested in learning about recommended practices in interpreting student feedback to join us. \nREGISTER
