[Teri Carter]

If you decide to opt in for iEval, please sign up on the link listed 
below.  I will be keeping a spreadsheet to ensure that each person 
who opts in is on the list for Instructional Development, so if you 
opt in, please let me know.

Thank you.

>Dear Winter 2007 Instructors:

>This is a reminder that the deadline to sign up to have your 
>course(s) evaluated through iEVAL is Friday, February 22.  Please 
>sign up through your department or you can select your mode of 
>evaluation at <http://www.ieval.ucr.edu/>www.ieval.ucr.edu .   You 
>will need to provide your name, employee ID, course(s), net ID (this

>Instructional Development will send all instructors who signed up to 
>use iEVAL a message confirming the courses that are scheduled to use 
>iEVAL, instructions on how iEVAL will work, and the dates that the 
>system will be available to the students.  Evaluations will be made 
>available to your students during week March 5-16, and the results 
>will be available to you on the first day of instruction for Spring 
>2008 (March 31, 2008).
>
>Benefits to iEVAL are:
>1)  Students can respond at any time thus freeing your class time
>2)  Final Course Evaluation Reports for Winter 2008 will be 
>available to faculty on iEVAL on the first day of instruction of the 
>following quarter (March 31, 2008), paper evaluations will not be 
>available until the end of May 2008
>3)  Students provide more in-depth comments and behave more maturely 
>than in the paper format (online comments require minimal to no 
>editing for profanity and inappropriate comments)
>4)  In reviewing past course evaluation for faculty participants the 
>ratings remained consistent with their historical results.  The 
>response rates are lower than the paper evaluation but we are 
>working on improving this by developing creative ways of encouraging 
>and advertising iEVAL to the students
>5)  iEVAL is environmentally friendly.  Each quarter we process over 
>30,000 paper evaluations and print over 1,500 final reports that are 
>distributed to faculty and department chairs.  iEVAL can be 
>processed and viewed online.  The system also archives evaluations 
>dating back to Winter 2005, providing quick and easy access to these 
>important records.

>As of Fall 2007 27% of UCR courses selected to use iEVAL.  The 
>overall response rate is 49%.  The average response rate for large 
>courses is as follows:
>Courses with enrollments over 100=44%
>
>Courses with enrollments over 200= 39%

>Courses with enrollments over 300= 43%
