Obtaining feedback from students

As instructors, we often dread the process of obtaining end of course feedback, and question its validity, particularly when there is a poor response rate.  As well, there is no opportunity to respond to student feedback.  This is why getting ongoing feedback is essential to meet student needs and improve our teaching.

There are a number of simple tools to obtain ongoing feedback.  The Teaching Commons @ York provides a number of good resources for instructors.   Check out their link: Obtaining Feedback from Students.  I challenge you to find one new way to integrate otaining student feedback into your classes.  You may obtain some valuable suggestions for improving your courses and this is a great way that you can send a message to students that their voice matters!
