Course Evaluation Guidance for Students

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find course evaluations?

Click on the "Go to Survey" link from the email you received from University Analytics and Institutional Research.  Your email subject should have "Course Evaluation" in the title.

Why isn't there a Course Evaluation link for a course in Blackboard?

The university is switching learning platforms.  Beginning with the Spring 2025 semester, course evaluation links will be available in Brightspace (also known as D2L).

Why do evaluations take place before the course ends?

Finals week is a stressful time for students. UCM has traditionally conducted course evaluations prior to finals week so that the stress of that time period is not the most recent thing on students' minds when they sit down to evaluate an instructor.
