New working group reviews the work with course evaluations

At its meeting on 12 April, the Education Committee decided on directives for the working group. For students today, there is no uniform system for how course evaluations are to be kept available or how they are to be fed back. These are problems that are highlighted in the Student Union letter, among other things.

Therefore, the Faculty of Science and Technology wants to review the process of course evaluations and this is also included in the activity plan for the faculty's operational plan for 2020-2022. The Education Committee has decided on directives for a working group, which the vice dean and education directors are tasked with appointing. The group must include student representatives.

The working group shall develop a procedure for course evaluations that ensures systematic quality work and leads to a clear process for the work with course evaluations. In their work with the assignment, the working group will, among other things, consider how to achieve a high response rate in course evaluations, how feedback should take place, where course evaluations should be kept available for students and teachers and whether the current course report system should be phased out and replaced by a new one.
