Course Eval Information

This page includes links and documents to facilitate departments in producing their questions for the new student faculty and course evaluation forms. More information will be posted here as we get it. If you happen to find something that you think would be helpful for others, please send it to Mark Lewis (mlewis@trinity.edu). Most of the links and forms show questions that are used with numeric responses. You could make them include a short-answer segment as well by adding, "Please explain why you rated this item as you did. Be as specific as possible."
