Dr. Miller opened a discussion on students evaluating Course Directors. The 3 levels of evaluation are
- Mandatory-designed by the Dean
- Voluntary - handed out at each lecture or already in Cbase for each class
- Course Director can create the evaluation themselves on line.
Assessment of Block Teaching in Year 1 was tabled because of Dr. Fleit’s absence. |
A motion was passed to ask IT to come up with a mandatory evaluation in C-base. Dr. Eisenberg will begin work on that. |
