I just filled out my macro course evaluation, and here's what I had to say:
I filled out these questions as "Strongly disagree" (based on a Strongly disagree/disagree/unsure/agree/strongly agree scale.)
1. This course increased my knowledge.
2. The course objectives were clear.
3. This course provided sufficient opportunity for me to learn.
4. This course challenged me intellectually.
5. My grades adequately reflected the quality of my performance in this course.
6. The instructor was well prepared for each class.
7. The instructor's explanations were clear.
8. The instructor was concerned with whether or not the students learned the material.
9. The instructor was available for consultation with students.
10. The instructor's expectations for assignment were clear.
11. The instructor's assessments reflected what was covered in the course.
12. The instructor made a significant impact on my understanding of course content.
"-The professor should lecture about what we are to be held accountable for on assessments (I.E. - Lectures should be contained to the chapters we will be tested on during the next test. Not chapter 17 when we're being tested on 1-5.)
-The professor should report to class at the time we signed up/paid for him to be there.
-The professor should adhere to the course syllabus as much as possible even if it is tentative.
-The professor should make students aware of his clear expectations for any assignment given that will be a part of our final grade.
-The professor should have a clear rubric from which he will be grading from.
All of the questions above were considered objectively based on the question, and not the accumulation of issues I had with this professor."
The part that asked me to list at least 2 positive things about the course, I said "N/A"
