Course Evaluations
UNC Pembroke's online course evaluation is a survey officially approved by Faculty Senate, and the procedures are governed by the Faculty Handbook and Graduate Faculty Handbook at UNCP.
Every semester, the Student Evaluation of Instruction (SEI) and Graduate Course Analysis (GCA) are administered by the Office of Institutional Research. SEI is a university-wide survey of students' perceptions and opinions of the instruction they received, while GCA provides data on the effectiveness of graduate courses.

No, this is not possible. Instructors and TAs are not able to see their evaluation
reports until they have turned in grades. The evaluation reports they are provided
contain aggregated information and no specific responses or ratings can be linked
back to individual students. Some instructors may choose to give participation credit
to students for completing evaluations. If this is the case, failing to complete
evaluations for that course would mean losing the extra/participation credit offered
for completing them.
Yes, even though the survey itself does not contain any respondent's identifying information,
the instructors will be able to read the written comments. Please be thoughtful as
these are used for instructional development, and serve to help future students.
We send reminders every three days once the survey is open and until it closes as
long as you have not completed them. Once you complete a survey for a course you
will no longer receive further reminders for that course.
Participation in evaluations is voluntary. However, your feedback is a valued resource
and essential for instructional development at UNCP. Thank you for your participation.
