How to Increase Response Rates for Your Course Evaluations

Try these tips today!

Student Course Experience Surveys (SCES) will be open from November 18 - December 8 and are now created & distributed exclusively through the Office of Teaching and Learning. You can help increase the response rate for your SCES by following these recommendations.

  1. Offer a few minutes at the end of a class period for all students to respond to their surveys. It is required that you leave the room during this time.

  2. Offer an incentive that is not tied to a student’s grade. Each survey has a survey completion page a student can show to prove they completed the survey. This is a great way to use up that extra Halloween candy.

For more ideas on increasing response rates, contact Dr. Stacy Duffield.
