[Classclimate-users] Did switching to online evals affect average ratings?

[Shostak, Marlene]

Dear Megan,

When we used paper forms response was way higher because I would go into the classrooms and have the students fill out the forms right then and there.  We've noticed a drop since going to the electronic system because students do it on their own.  One of our faculty members noticed the drop and asked me to go to her class and have the students fill out the survey right then and there and we got much better result in that situation.

Hope this helps.

Good Afternoon Class Climate Users,

I recently received a few inquiries from prospective Class Climate users regarding how the switch from paper evaluations to online evaluations has affected instructors' overall results.  Some instructors are concerned that their ratings will be negatively impacted by the change.  OIT hasn't collected this information officially, so we wanted to put the question to the current online users to see what your experiences have been.  Has anyone noticed a change?  Was it a negative difference, or a positive difference?  Has the effect repeated each term, or reversed, or has it evened out with the continued use of the online procedure?

Thanks for sharing your observations,

Megan
