Course Evaluations
- The goal of this course, “Advanced Applications Programming” is to help you
- move beyond the kind of programming you did in 16/24/32
- into the kind of programming involved in real-world software development
- Real world software development is messy
- You have to both determine “what problem to solve” as well as “how to solve it”
- The messiness was exacerbated by trying to scale up the size of the course to accomodate the waitlist.
- I took on an extra load to try to help ensure that the waitlisted students would not have to wait until F20 to take the course.
- As a result, the course was certainly less well organized that it otherwise would have been.
- I hope that you will take that into consideration when deciding on ratings for
- Course independent of Instructor (evaluate the course)
- Instructor independent of Course (evaluate the instructor)
The University takes course evaluations seriously.
- They affect pay and promotion for faculty
- If you want your comments to be taken seriously, avoid profanity.
- The written comments are just as important (if not more so) than the numerical ratings.
- Comments that focus on what helped or detracted fron your learning are the most on point.
Instructor must leave the room while course evals are completed.
- However, please do not use this time as an opportunity for “office hours”.
