E-mail this article

The committee charged with reviewing ACE teaching evaluations and their use campus-wide is sponsoring two open forums, one on April 24 and the second on May 8. Times and locations are below.

The forums will include an update on the committee’s work by the co-chairs of the committee, with much of the hour spent answering questions and listening to participants’ suggestions and concerns.

We hope you can attend.

The committee’s work has focused on three central areas, including the ACE questions themselves; how bias in responses can be mitigated; and best practices for the use of information and related data collected through the evaluation process.

  • The committee is charged with making recommendations to campus leadership.

Please attend the forum to learn about the committee’s work to date and to share your insights about student evaluations with committee members.

  • Wednesday, April 24, 9:30-10:30 in EPB 109
  • Wednesday, May 8, 1:00-2:00 in UCC 2520D

With task force chairs and other members of the committee:

  • Kenneth Brown, Professor and Associate Dean, Undergraduate Program in Business and Ralph L. Sheets Professor of Management;
  • Annette Beck, Director, Enterprise Instructional Technology, Office of Teaching, Learning & Technology
