This is the post for the week of December 6, 2016.

Course Evaluation

Please fill out the Student Perceptions of Teaching (SPOT) survey for this course. I do not see the feedback until after grades are submitted, and your comments are anonymous.

The feedback helps the department make important decisions about teaching methods, course content, and faculty promotion. Written comments help me decide what to keep or change the next time I teach the course.

Need More Participation Evidence?

You can count completing the SPOT survey on the "Other Participation" tab of your Participation Log. I will look for indication that you have completed the survey in the content of your final exam, but do NOT tell me what you responses were. Your responses in the survey must remain anonymous.
