Mid-Semester Feedback

Getting Student Feedback is Worth the Time

Download Player

Would you appreciate some student feedback on your course(es) before the end of the semester?
Would you like to improve your students' experience in your class?
Would you like some feedback that goes only to you and is neither used as evaluation nor placed in your personnel file?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then participating in the Mid-Semester Feedback Program is an opportunity for you and your students. We have developed a procedure to help you get useful feedback from your students. This classroom model gives you feedback for YOUR use and benefit only. The feedback is not shared with others to evaluate your instruction, and it will not go into your personnel file. Unlike an end-of-the-course evaluation, this feedback comes to you while there is still time to make changes.

Why Conduct a Mid-Semester Student Feedback Session?

The Mid-Semester Feedback Program allows you to solicit feedback from students early enough in a semester so that there is time to address concerns and make reasonable changes. The process is designed to be constructive and to promote self-reflection and personal responsibility as students join with you in exploring possible improvements.
