Utilizing Course Evaluation Data to Improve Student Learning and Success in Developmental Math Courses
Rehak, Patricia A.; McKinney, Lyle
Community College Journal of Research and Practice, v39 n2 p199-203 2015
The thoughtful utilization of student course evaluation data has been documented in the literature as a way to significantly improve student learning outcomes and the overall quality of instruction. However, at many community colleges, course evaluations continue to be used only for summative purposes or as a generic measure of instructor performance. Using developmental math courses as an example, in this article we explain how the effective use of course evaluation data can be utilized to improve pedagogy and, in turn, student success. Our recommendations are aimed at helping community colleges increase students' academic engagement and the number of students who earn a credential.
