Abstract

Course evaluations are the most prevalently used instrument to measure teaching performance in higher education. The tool is known to provide sufficient feedback to improve the learning environment and instructor presentation. On the other hand, concerns of whether a student is qualified to be a rater and if his or her perspective is a true valid and reliable measurement of effective teaching remain. This is reasonable, considering students’ rating may be influenced by factors such as their grade, interest in course, attractiveness to faculty member, and personal expectation of the faculty member which can lead to bias. This talk will examine the meaning of course evaluations in terms of the elements that make up the course experience, from design to execution.
