Course Evaluation Survey Template

A Course Evaluation (also known as a Student Evaluation of Teaching or SET) is a systematic survey used in academic settings to gather feedback from students about a specific academic course and the performance of the instructor who taught it.
It assesses the quality of teaching methods, the clarity of communication, the relevance of course content, and the fairness of assignments and assessments. The goal is to provide a confidential channel for students to offer constructive criticism, which is used by instructors for self-improvement and by administrators for academic quality assurance.
