Course Evaluations

Every semester, students have the opportunity to evaluate their courses against a vetted series of evaluation questions. Faculty can customize their course evaluations to ask additional questions that are relevant to their own course development plans.

Stony Brook University uses Anthology Course Evaluation. Login below to see the current evaluation data (Fall 2022-Present):

Boost Your Response Rates

Feedback from course evaluations is far more valuable if you can maximize your response rates. Listed here are tried-and-true ways to increase response rates to your course surveys. If you have other ideas or suggestions that have worked for you, please let us know! Email the CELT Course Evaluation Team at CourseEval@stonybrook.edu

 

Midterm Student Feedback

Stony Brook University does not centrally distribute midterm course evaluations. However, here at CELT we encourage faculty members to gather formative feedback from students around the midpoint of the term in order to make modifications to improve student learning.

Feedback can be collected in the form of a mid-point survey deployed through Qualtrics, Google Forms or another survey tool of your choice. The purpose of midterm feedback surveys is to improve the current learning experience, by giving the opportunity for students to share their reflections with instructors. CELT is happy to provide feedback and guidance on creating or customizing questions for mid-point surveys. Reach out to courseevals@stonybrook.edu for a consultation.

Tips for Deploying Midterm Surveys

  • Make it optional and informal (no grade should be attached!)
  • Choose whether or not to make it anonymous (this may depend on the questions you ask!)
  • Provide students the opportunity to reflect by using open-ended questions
  • Consider using class time for students to respond
  • Share results with students and discuss how feedback may impact the course moving forward

Online Evaluations Guidance

Confirm accurate teaching assignments in Solar (PeopleSoft)

Instructors will not be evaluated if they are not properly assigned to their course in PeopleSoft.  Please note: only primary and secondary instructors are evaluated.  For TAs to be evaluated they must be listed as a primary or secondary instructor in PeopleSoft.

Update department administrator access in the evaluation system

Deans, Department Chairs and their designees can request access to view evaluation results for all courses in their assigned college/school or department. To update or request administrator access, please email us at CourseEval@stonybrook.edu or call 2-8032.

If needed, submit an exception request

All courses and course sections are evaluated, EXCEPT those designated as TUT or SUP in PeopleSoft. If you require an exception to these rules, you must submit a request prior to the start of evaluations. Requests should be submitted in the following circumstances:

  • You want your TUT or SUP courses evaluated
  • Your lecture and recitation (LEC and REC) or lecture and lab (LEC and LAB) course sections are identical (i.e. same instructor and students) and you only want students to complete evaluations for one of these sections
  • You would like another exception request considered.*

*Any request to remove courses from evaluations will require approval from department chairpersons.

Submit an exception request  

Please Note: Departments and faculty who have submitted exception requests in the past do not need to re-submit.  If you’re unsure if your request was submitted, please email us at CourseEval@stonybrook.edu.
