Re: Student Evaluations (was "Re: On Correlations")



Hi all-
I think that Dick Hake is tilting with a windmill.
Student evaluation = customer satisfaction,
and that's where the money is, as far as administrators are concerned.
They, basically, don't give a hoot about "learning outcomes" because
neither do the students. Let's remember that few few people find need
to call upon their undergraduate experiences once they are out of
college. I include engineers in this broad generalization.
Regards,
Jack

Adam was by constitution and proclivity a scientist; I was the same, and
we loved to call ourselves by that great name...Our first memorable
scientific discovery was the law that water and like fluids run downhill,
not up.
