Information about Course Evaluations
Winter, 2012

Evaluation period: March 22-April 4, 2012

In September 2009, Mount Allison University Senate passed the Policy on Teaching Evaluation, which states that each course at Mount Allison University will be evaluated every time it is taught using the Standard Mount Allison Evaluation Form.

*Implicit in the Policy is the expectation that all faculty members will submit the completed Scantron 'bubble sheets' containing the students' ratings to their departmental secretary, who will then forward them to be processed by Departmental Support Services.*

You are strongly encouraged to conduct your evaluations early within this period and to inform your departmental secretary at least a day or two in advance which dates you have chosen.

Senate has given the Teaching and Learning Committee responsibility for implementing the new policy.The Committee has prepared the material on this website to facilitate the process for the University community. Though it has been categorized for faculty, secretaries, and students, the information is open and of interest to all.

Essential Evaluation Documents & Forms
Departmental secretaries have sufficient copies of all the materials.

The Role of the PCTC in Teaching Evaluations

The Director of PCTC chairs the Senate Teaching and Learning Committee and was a member of the Ad Hoc Committee on Teaching Evaluation.

The Senate Policy on Teaching Evaluation affirms PCTC's role in supporting faculty by posting course evaluation information on this website, and in responding to requests for information about formative aspects of evaluation, teaching enhancement, and the development of teaching portfolios and other evidence of accomplishment.
