Dear Colleagues,

How have your departments addressed low response rates for teaching
evaluations? Might this be a personnel issue for us all?

iEval output for faculty seems to have changed, it has a more visually
stimulating representation of data, but hard to derive averages/means for
particular questions (as scales).

See the draft report entitled "Low Course Evaluation Response Rates: Problems
and Practical Guidelines."

Warmly,
