UNH FACULTY SENATE
MOTION # XVI-M7

regarding on-line and January-term course evaluations

1.  Motion presenter:   Michael Ferber

2.  Dates of Faculty Senate discussion:   1/30/2012 and 2/13/2012

3.  Rationale:

The Academic Affairs Committee has discovered that the university, not the faculty member, sends the regular course evaluation form also to the students in on-line courses; but the committee recommends that the senate still pass the motion to confirm the status quo. 

4.  Motion:

The Faculty Senate mandates that all on-line courses and all January-term courses whether on-line or not include a student-evaluation questionnaire, as all other courses currently do.  This requirement shall take effect in the summer of 2012. 

5.  Senate action:  passed with forty-one ayes, no nays and one abstention.

6.  Senate chair’s signature:  Larry Prelli

Forwarded to:  President Mark Huddleston, on March 1, 2012

Forwarded to:  Provost John Aber, on March 1, 2012

Forwarded to:  Lisa MacFarlane, Senior Vice Provost for Academic Affairs, on March 1, 2012

Forwarded to:  Registrar Kathryn Forbes, on March 1, 2012
