>Dear All:

>As the time for course evaluations approaches we 
>are pleased to continue to offer faculty the 
>option of using the new online course evaluation 
>system, iEVAL.  As of Fall 2007 27% of UCR 
>courses were evaluated using this system.  We 
>hope to continue to increase the campus 
>participation.  There are many benefits to using iEVAL, here are just a few:
>    * We do all the work! - Once you let us know 
> who wants to participate and what courses they 
> teach...your work is done! We send students 
> several personalized reminders encouraging them 
> to provide feedback on the instruction they received for the quarter.
>    * Faculty feedback – We provide faculty 
> frequent feedback on the response rate DURING 
> the process...while they can still do something about it.
>    * Quick access to evaluations - on-line 
> evaluations become available on the next 
> quarter's first day of instruction (i.e. Winter 
> 08 evaluations will be available on March 31, 
> 2008, paper evaluations will not be available until the end of MAY!)
>    * Quality of evaluations is high - We find 
> that students provide more constructive 
> feedback on-line.  We do much less editing for 
> inappropriate comments and profanity than with paper evaluations.
>Please let your faculty know about the option of 
>using iEVAL!  Faculty who participated in iEVAL 
>as of Fall 2007 will automatically default 
>faculty to this option.  If faculty wish to 
>continue using this system they will not need to 
>do anything.  If they would like to opt out of 
>iEVAL then please ask them to go to 
><http://www.ieval.ucr.edu/>www.ieval.ucr.edu

>Faculty who did not use iEVAL in Fall 2007 can 
>select to use iEVAL by letting you know and you 
>can then provide OID with the attached 
>spreadsheet.  It is essential that we have the 
>following information, faculty's name, ID 
>number, net ID (this can be found at 
><http://enterprisedirectory.ucr.edu/phone/tel_search.show>http://enterprisedirectory.ucr.edu/phone/tel_search.show 
>) and ALL the courses they wish to have 
>evaluated.  The deadline to submit your 
>department list is Friday, February 
>22.  Approximately a week later we will provide 
>you with a final list of all courses that will 
>be evaluated online.  The faculty will also 
>receive a detailed e-mail advising them on how 
>the process works and the timeline that the 
>evaluation will be made available to their 
>students.   iEVAL will be made available to 
>students from Wednesday March 5 – Midnight on Sunday, March 16.

>OR
>
>faculty can go online to 
><http://www.ieval.ucr/>www.ieval.ucr to 
>sign-up.  Although the sign up process is 
>simple, we found that many faculty preferred to 
>sign up through their department.

>Immediately following this e-mail I will forward 
>an e-mail that you may use to convey the iEVAL 
>option to your faculty.  Please contact me if you have any questions.
