Mid-Term Student Course Evaluations (SCE), also known as "Early Feedback," are not mandatory but can be administered upon instructors' request. The feedback is intended solely for instructors' use and remains confidential. Results are not reported to or accessible by the department.
Currently, the option for Mid-Term SCE is only available for courses scheduled in the regular terms. However, if instructors teaching a course in a partial term would like to conduct a Mid-Term SCE, they can submit a request to OIEE (assessment@tamu.edu) for administration.
Mid-Term evaluations typically take place during the 5th or 6th week of the 15-week semesters. Instructors are responsible for adding their own SCE questions to their respective course sections. Additionally, a general instructor-only text question, "Kindly share any general comments about this course to facilitate early feedback." will be included for all elected courses undergoing evaluation.
Instructors who opt-in to participate in the Mid-Term SCE must submit the course opt-in request form no later than the end of the 3rd week of the 15-week semester (refer to the specific dates below). This ensures sufficient time to set up the evaluations.
