Student Evaluations of Teaching
Mason shifted to an entirely on-line format for the student evaluation of teaching process starting Fall 2020. In consultation with the University Effective Teaching Committee, Faculty Senate Chair, the Provost, the Registrar and ITS, the Office of Institutional Effectiveness and Planning selected Blue by Explorance to meet institutional needs in an environmentally friendly and fiscally responsible way. This evaluation software was chosen for its functionality, ease of use and demonstrated success at many institutions, including several in Virginia. Notable features include:
- Core university questions with up to 5 custom questions
- Multiple notification methods
- Instructors will be able to see response rates in real time
- Wide variety of reports available for your use
