Important Notice: Due to changes in our scanning software, the unique 10 digit code number assigned to each course MUST be bubbled in. This 10 digit string identifies the course, section, instructor, department, and college and is listed on the label.

Preparation

1. As of Spring Term 2010, the unique 10 digit code number assigned to each course MUST be bubbled in. This 10 digit string identifies the course, section, instructor, department, and college and is listed on the label.
2. All departments will receive a packet that contains labels for each course. These labels are generated by IT Services and distributed to the departments three (3) weeks after classes begin. Each label contains the following information: Instructor's Name, Department, Course Description ( i.e. ACCT2101A ), 10 digit number, and course enrollment. A sample label is shown below.

   BEAR, PANDA T. CSV1010A DEPT. 08 INTRODUCTION TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY I 0350222641 Enrl = 25

   ← Instructor's Name ← Department ← Course Description ← 10 digit number ← Course enrollment

3. Affix the label in the upper left hand corner of the envelope.
4. A separate manila envelope should be prepared for each course label.
5. The student should write in the Course, Dept #, Section, Instructor and Term on the answer sheet AND BUBBLE IN THE SPECIAL 10 DIGIT CODE NUMBER ON THE SCANTRON ANSWER SHEET.

Returning the packet to ITS

Following these steps will strengthen the scanning process.

1. DO NOT include any handwritten comment sheets in the manila envelope with the completed Scantron forms.
2. All Scantron forms should be organized to face the same direction.
3. Sort your department envelopes alphabetically by instructor last name.
4. The 10 digit code number MUST be bubbled in on the Scantron Answer Sheet.
5. The deadline for returning the completed evaluations to Information Technology Services is the day after the last day of classes for the term being evaluated.

Other Information

1. The Augusta State University Evaluation/Survey Scantron form is available from the ASU Central Supply Office.
2. The Official Course and Instructor Evaluation tool is available from your Dean.
3. Instructions for the person administering the evaluation can be found in one of the next three sections, listed by department.

Instructions for the person administering the evaluation

These instructions should be read before every evaluation even though students may have heard them many times. They are aimed at encouraging students to take the evaluations seriously and answer the questions thoughtfully.

Instructions to be read to the students

This occasion for evaluation of both the course and the professor is your opportunity to have input into the educational process of your university. It is a great responsibility that requires thought, objectivity, honesty, and fairness on your part. This evaluation will be used by the professor and administrator to maintain and improve the quality of the course and the teaching of the professor. As you evaluate the course, please remember to consider your own responsibility as a student, taking into consideration your attendance, your completion of reading and other assignments in a timely manner, and the amount of work you put into the course.

The computer sheets are treated differently. Information Technology Services will process the sheets into reports that are sent back to the Dean's office and to the individual professor. The Dean of Business will consider these reports when preparing annual evaluations of faculty. Please take your time and answer the questions thoughtfully.

This process is completely anonymous. Your professor must not be present while you complete the evaluation forms. The person administering the evaluation will separate the computer sheets from the written answers and deliver them to your professor's department. Each department is governed by a "chair." Your professor's chair will set the written answers aside, unread, until after all grades for the course have been turned in to the Registrar. No one will see the written answers until after your grades are reported. At that time, the written answers will be given to your professor, who is expected to consider your suggestions. Professors can choose to include the written comments in their annual reports, but you should address your comments to the professor, not to any administrator.
