Student Evaluation of Teaching
The Peer Review Project Team recognizes that review of teaching activities for the purposes of both improving teaching and judging effective teaching come from multiple sources and include many perspectives. This website provides information specifically about participation of colleagues in the development and assessment of teaching. Student evaluations can also be valuable and are widely used, but will not be addressed on this site.
For additional information on this topic, we suggest you read the following:
- Report of the Teaching Academy Task Force on the Student Assessment of Learning (SAL), Faculty Document 1180, 5 February 1996
- Final Report of the Ad Hoc Committee on the Use of Student Course Evaluations, Faculty Document 1274, 7 April 1997
We have also included an example of a student course evaluation form from a department in the School of Education at UW-Madison:
