Information for Students

West Chester University is committed to ensuring the quality of the teaching and learning experience of our students. An important component of this is student feedback. 

It’s quick. 
Most students complete the survey in less than 5 minutes. The online system is mobile-friendly and easy to use on the go!  

It’s  confidential.
Your instructor will never see your name or ID attached to your individual responses. Your instructor will receive a results report of summarized data only and text from open-ended questions as written. To protect your anonymity, please do not include your name in the open-ended responses. Additionally, your feedback is not available to your instructor until after final grades have been submitted and posted. 

It’s not “just a formality.” 
Instructors use this valuable information to improve and enhance their courses and they appreciate the time you take to complete the survey and any individual comments you may choose to add. As you complete the survey, try to put aside your reaction to the course itself and focus on the quality of instruction provided by this instructor. 
 
Did you know that instructors who are perceived as attractive get more positive feedback on average than instructors who are not? Did you know that non-white instructors receive less positive feedback on average? Instructors who do not conform to the cultural expectations of what a stereotypical professor should be often receive less positive feedback. Biases like these affect the way we perceive others and impact the feedback we give. Please keep this in mind as you provide feedback on this and other courses.
