Future students may be interested in how past students have rated the learning experience in courses which I teach. I have summarized in the table below my instructor averages along with the departmental, college, and university averages for past students' responses to the Course and Instructor Evaluation Questionnaire. The first several questions are demographic in nature and thus the responses have been omitted. Instructor averages below the departmental, college, or university mean are highlighted in red. Instructor averages above the departmental, college, and university mean are highlighted in green.
Responses are on a scale of 1-10 with higher numbers indicating stronger agreement with the statement.
