Spring 2011 Online and Hybrid Course Evaluation

The Spring 2011 Online and Hybrid Course Evaluation is now available. Students have been sent an email with a link to the evaluation asking them to complete this survey for each of their online or hybrid courses. By completing the survey, students even have the opportunity to enter a sweepstakes to win a $100 Amazon gift card... Now I want to complete this survey. : )

Instructor assistance in reminding and encouraging students to complete this evaluation is imperative.
Although students were sent an email with a link to the survey, you have a course evaluation button on your course menu that you should make available to your students. After the button is available, you should post an announcement and send your students a reminder email directing them to that button. The more emphasis you put on completing the evaluation, the more students that will complete the survey.

I have placed a link below to a handout that mentions a few small things that you can do that may help increase the number of students that complete the evaluation. I have also included instructions in that handout on how to make the course evaluation button available in case you need some help.
