Encouraging a Strong Response Rate
SFF data is most valuable when you have a high response rate, helping to ensure that you have a representative picture of the student experience in your course.
University Communication
- Students will be sent emails from the University asking them to complete their evaluations online.
- Email communication for a short duration and early start courses are sent directly by school/college liaisons.
What can instructors do to encourage a strong response rate?
- Instructors are encouraged to give students time in class to complete SFFs. Students have said giving time in class signals to them that SFFs are important to the instructor.
- Discuss with students the importance of providing course and instructor feedback. Give students specific examples of how you have used SFF data in the past.
- Monitor your response rates on the Welcome page of the SFF system. http://sff.temple.edu).
