Staff can include an additional question in the Student Evaluation of Learning and Teaching (SELT) survey for units that are offered in Term 3 Foundation Studies (202354).
The SELT surveys are conducted for all coursework units with 10 or more students in accordance with the Evaluation of Learning and Teaching Policy and related procedures.
In addition to the SELT core items (rating-type questions) that will be automatically included in the survey, each teaching staff member (lecturer/tutor) has the opportunity to include one additional item of their own composition in relation to their teaching in a unit.
The additional item forms the fifth Likert scale item in Section B of the survey relating to your teaching. All items in Section B start with the stem “Overall, [Lecturer/Tutor name]…”; therefore the optional item should follow the stem and focus on an aspect of an individual’s teaching practice/behaviour that they wish to seek feedback on. Refer to Staff FAQs for examples of additional questions (Q18 specifically).
The opportunity to include an optional, additional item/question in SELT survey will close on Monday 21 August 2023.
Email invitations have been sent to applicable staff to submit their question, one of the following situations applies to staff:
Situation A: If you received an email invitation sent from Evaluations.CEI@acu.edu.au, it means:
Situation B: If you did not receive an email invitation, then the criteria listed in Situation A were not met.
Situation C: If you received the email invitation and you are not teaching in a unit that is shown on the ‘Evaluations’ block in LEO front page, please inform CEI immediately, so that we can remove your name before students are invited to complete the surveys.
For further information on SELT surveys, please visit our webpage and email Evaluations.CEI@acu.edu.au if you have any questions.
