Student Evaluations

Instead of allocating class time to filling out student evaluations, Brooklyn College this year is doing evaluations entirely online. Please take a minute to go to http://portal.brooklyn.edu and fill out an evaluation for this class. It's totally anonymous, it's very helpful to me as a teacher, and there are benefits for you, too. Those benefits (per an email I got from the University) are:

• Immediate Grade Notification: Students who submit 100% of their evaluations will receive their course grades as soon as the instructor has registered them via WebGrading. Others will have to wait until December 31st.
• Early Access to Student Feedback, including Student Comments: Students who submit 100% of their evaluations will be given access in early January to their fellow students' feedback, in time for program changes for the spring 2009 semester. Other students will have to wait to see this feedback until after the last day to drop/add a course in the spring 2009 semester.
• Lottery Prizes: Students who submit 100% of their evaluations will have their names entered into a lottery to win cash prizes of $250, $100 and $50.

Thanks.
