For Staff

A Message From Arlene Carney, Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs
Important updates on the administration of the Student Rating of Teaching form for Spring 2009 can be found here. Please click here to access the letter.



IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT ONLINE EVALUATION
Note to instructors from the Provost's Office:
During spring semester 2008, as the University transitions to the faculty-senate approved Student Rating of Teaching questions, all student rating forms on the Twin Cities campus will be distributed in hard-copy format only. Please click here for more information.


SRT Instructions for Staff
SRT ID Sheets have been bundled and sent out to colleges and departments throughout the U of M, Twin Cities. If you have received the ID Sheets your name was provided to OMS as the Course Evaluation Contact for your College/Department. The ID sheets you have received must be distributed to faculty and/or staff for use at the end of the semester.

All information regarding course numbers, enrollment numbers, faculty and TAs was pulled from the Data Warehouse.

Things you may need to do:
1. If you have received SRT supplies for your entire college you may need to coordinate with office personnel from subordinate departments to accurately distribute the necessary forms.

2. If an ID sheet has "Unknown" information on it, we could not locate the appropriate information in the Data Warehouse. If the instructor name is missing, you may fill in the box at the bottom of the ID sheet with the instructor's employee ID number and submit to OMS for processing. Make sure you also update this information in PeopleSoft.

3. If the instructor's name is correct but the address or other information is not correct, please ensure that the correct data is entered into the Data Warehouse and also make the appropriate changes on the ID Sheet.

4. If you are missing ID sheets for any course or instructor please call OMS to check for preprinted ID Sheets.

5. If you have received ID sheets for courses and/or instructors that do not belong to your department, please send them back to OMS.

If you require additional SRT forms please call our office (612-626-0307) or, for an online order form, click here.

To return your SRT forms to OMS for scoring, please send them to the OMS offices via Campus Mail.
