Abstract

Through the Honors Scholars’ Collaborative, our class, under the guidance of Dr. Heather Finch, has attempted to solve the problem of biased and potentially unhelpful course evaluations. We identified this problem through personal experience with feeling unmotivated to complete school-issued course evaluations and mistrust in other review sources. We set out to educate Belmont students on the importance of course evaluations, work towards better resources for professors regarding feedback, and create a website to better suit students’ needs to prepare for registration. To complete our goals, we executed two WELL Core events, built connections in the Teaching Center, and designed a website. This work is important because feedback is not only relevant to us as students but we can also apply the methods we have learned this semester to any career moving forward. During this presentation, we will discuss our process of solving the problems we have identified with course evaluations and how we see our work continuing.
