Through Digital Measures Course Response, you may be asked to evaluate a course that lists one or more instructors. You should be able to tell how many instructors you will be evaluating for a particular class on the welcome screen:

There are two instructors listed for this course: BeckyMussat-Whitlow and TestFaculty.

There is one instructor listed for this course: Test Faculty.

After you click on a course evaluation, you should see this screen, which displays the course prefix, course number, section number, course title and instructor(s) for the class.

View of a single-instructor class:

The evaluation questions will applyto this course (i.e., IPA 2200 02)and instructor (i.e., Test Faculty).

View of a multiple-instructor course:

The evaluation questions will apply to this course (i.e., IPA 1100 01) and these instructors(i.e., Becky Mussat-Whitlowand Test Faculty).

“Have you completed or will you be completing an evaluation for this course in pencil/paper format?”

Once you open an evaluation, the first question you will see is “Have you completed or will you be completing an evaluation for this course in pencil/paper format?” Similar to a “choose your own adventure” book, your response to this question will affect where you go next.

If you choose “No” If you respond “No” to “Have you completed or will you be completing an evaluation for this course in pencil/paper format?” the evaluation will be displayed:

All of the questions pertaining to theinstructor listed at the top of the box (i.e., Test Faculty) are included in this“instructor box.”

If you select “No,” you will see thecourse evaluation questions.

This is the name of theinstructor for whom youwill be answering thefollowing instructor questions.

7

As shown in the previous screenshot, there are “instructor boxes” that ask questions about a single instructor. Because of the way results are reported to instructors and administrators, it is important that you consider only the instructor listed at the top of the box when you answer those questions. In particular, at the end of the “instructor box,” you will see a comment box. This comment box asks you to provide your comments about this instructor (i.e., the instructor listed at the top of the “instructor box”). Please retain your comments for other instructors and/or for the course as a whole until later in the evaluation:

Add your commentsabout this instructor(i.e., Test Faculty) here.

8

If your course has more than one instructor listed, Section A (Instructor items) will be repeated. You will see a second “instructor box” with another instructor’s name at the top. Again, only consider the instructor listed at the top of the “instructor” box while answering these questions:

This is the name of theinstructor for whom youwill be answering thefollowing instructor questions.

All of the questions pertaining to the instructor listed at the top ofthe box (e.g., Becky Mussat-Whitlow) are included in this“instructor box.”

9

The system will consider your evaluation “Completed” once you submit and confirm your “Yes” response.

Opt Out Option If you do not want to answer the course evaluation questions, you can check the box marked “I decline to fill this out” and submit the evaluation. This option is available at any time. If you select the “opt out” option at the beginning of the evaluation, you do not have to respond to “Have you completed or will you be completing an evaluation for this course in pencil/paper format?” or any additional questions. Once your “opt out” is submitted, Digital Measures Course Response will show your course evaluation as “Completed” on the opening screen.

View with “I decline to fill this out” selected:

To opt out, check “I decline to fill this out.”

Then, click “Submit.”

View of “I decline to fill this out” and then “Submit.” Please note that you must click “OK” for the system to record your response(s):
