Its best to use a few different way to evaluate assesments.

Never forget that students are more than just the product in your course; they are also consumers.
Multiple sources of data are needed to be reviewed prior to final determination on any course revisions
There are many ways to approach improving, it can be as simple as asking a collage if they can proof read something. You can give ask them "what can I do to make this better?" Feed back is the key to becoming successful and improving in all aspects of life.
Structured interviews, such as the mock interviews done by our Career Services Dept., are great for student practice and feedback.
I will make some adjustments to course evaluations for both students and instructors to ensure that the data-based evidence management is receiving is more concise. This will help us validate our reasons for curriculum revisions and added learning elements to "close the loop."
I learned that multiple sources are best practices for evaluating your work and student performance.
Multiple evaluations are needed to change an online course.
Student evaluations only are not enough to assess your online course. If there is an Instructional Designer, ask for their feedback, as well as other instructors.
As students learn in a variety of ways, utilizing a variety of evaluation tools can help students gain a deeper appreciation of teh material and where they need to focus their efforts to fully close the loop on their learning.
Use student feedback and evaluation to enhance your course!
dont make mistakes when posting about the online course. proof read.
It's vital to learn each time through a course and make changes to content to both improve learning and improve student outcomes.
My greatest take away for this module is ensuring students know that their input is important for the future of the course. We want student feedback to allow our teaching methods, design, and use-friendliness of the course to grow.
It is important to have a plan to regulary revise and improve your courses. I will strive to increase the number of different evaluation methods.
It is so important to evaluate your course regularly and to have stakeholders input as well. This enables you to improve your course content and methods to make it the best that it can be.
I received re-learning for reasoning to evaluate because it is an important part of quality assurance. Wasn't sure about "closing the loop" but i do agree with the concept that it takes 3 stakeholders: students who are the consumers; the institution and teaching & professional community.
Self-evaluation is a powerful tool instructor must perform in order to improve the quality of the instruction.
I think needing input from multiple individuals is best to improve the course.
No one tool will allow me to close the loop. It requires multiple tools, from multiple sources to provide quality feedback necessary to make meaningful changes.
Getting a 360 view of your course is needed for quantative and qualitiative evaluation. Yep, multiple analysis tools, but sometimes I think our society will try and get much more feedback than is needed to get the job done.
