Academic Progress Report

Student feedback enables the faculty and staff to maintain and enhance the quality of the curriculum in each school on the HSC campus. Student feedback is reviewed and compiled by administrators outside the purview of the academic department. The evaluations are maintained in a confidential manner and reported anonymously in summary documents provided to faculty and academic program administrators.

Evaluation Overview:

• All quantitative evaluation data are reported anonymously in aggregate to the appropriate faculty and academic program administrators.
• All student comments are reported anonymously, without edits, to the appropriate faculty and academic program administrators.
• Testing and Evaluation Services (TES) does not review or censor student comments.  Students are advised to offer constructive, professional comments which do not contain threats or profanity.
• Faculty members and/or academic program administrators may identify comments which they consider unprofessional, threatening, or that use profanity, and report these to TES.  Reports received from faculty and/or administrators concerning student comments they consider are unprofessional or threatening are reviewed by the Director of Testing and Evaluation Services and the Sr. Vice Provost of Student Affairs.  Upon completion of a review of the reported comments, a determination is made as to whether the identity of the student should be disclosed for the purpose of counseling, discipline, or ensuring the safety of an individual.

Course and Faculty Evaluations Include:

• Institution-wide questions (updated 20-21)
• Program specific questions
  • Course
  • Faculty
  • Student

Evaluation Cycle:

• Most course evaluations open the last day of the class/last assessment
• Course information is sent to Course Director approximately one week before the evaluation is set to open
• Once course and faculty information is confirmed evaluation is created and opened
• Students can access this platform through Canvas and they also receive email communications for evaluations

Gathering information through surveys provides UNTHSC administrators, faculty, and staff an additional means of assessment. Survey results have been used to provide information on students’ knowledge, opinions, and habits, program use and quality, and students’ plans after graduation.

Surveys are conducted through Qualtrics
