Request IDEA Course Evaluations by October 30
Dear Faculty,
We received the reports we need to create course evaluations and will continue to utilize the IDEA Student Ratings of Instruction surveys for full semester and Module 2 courses.
To initiate the evaluation process, please complete the IDEA request form for face-to-face and hybrid courses by October 30, 2024.
Courses listed as fully online in Canvas will automatically have a survey created and do not need to be included in the request form. However, if you have any special requests regarding online courses, please complete the request form or contact me.

- Nov 20 – Dec 6: Students complete surveys for 15-week courses (face-to-face and online).
- Dec 2 – Dec 13: Students complete surveys for 8-week online courses (Module 2).
Thank you for your timely attention to this request form,
Bri
Important Information about IDEA
What is IDEA?
The Individual Development and Educational Assessment (IDEA) system provides a formal method for gathering student feedback and translating it into actionable steps to improve student learning. IDEA surveys are completed electronically, but it is still recommended to administer the survey during class if your class meets synchronously. Please communicate to students what day you plan to complete the survey in class.
Who should use IDEA?
According to the Faculty Handbook, faculty are requested to use the IDEA Student Ratings in their classes as follows:
- Tenured faculty not applying for promotion: at least one class each academic year
- Non-tenured and non-tenure track faculty not applying for promotion: at least one class each semester
- Faculty applying for promotion and/or tenure and non-tenure track faculty full review: all classes in the semester previous to application
- Faculty teaching online courses, adjuncts, first-year faculty, visiting faculty, and all others: all classes each semester
