Plan Survey
Of Students
On Courses
By ANDREW HAWLEY
Students in the literary college
will be asked Tuesday and Wed-
nesday to complete forms which
will evaluate their courses and
instructors.
The survey is planned about
every third semester by a facul-
ty committee on student opinion
of courses and teaching, and ad-
ministered by the instructors
through student monitors, who
distribute, supervise and collect
the forms in each class.
The purpose of the poll, ex-
pressed In a letter to the student
monitors, is "to bring about more
effective instruction and to give
students an opportunity to assess
their own educational progress
and objectives," with the empha-
sis on the latter.
Questions Listed
The five questions to be an-
swered by the students are:
1) What do you think are the
objectives of this course?
2) What is your judgment as
to the value of this course in your
education? Please point out both

cies.
3) To what extent did you learn
to think clearly in the area cov-
ered by this course?
4) On the basis of your experi-
ence in this course and assuming
you have the time and oppor-
tunity either in college or later,
do you think you would be in-
clined to pursue interests in this
area? Explain.

5) Keeping in mind that the
returns from this questionnaire
will be used by the instructor in
the process of improving 'his
teaching, please mention any oth-
er aspects of the course or in-
structor (such as, for example,

ered in previous questions, wnich

or p3oor, and offer any suggestions
which you have for the improve-
ment of the course.
Students are asked not to sign
their names, and participation is

ed questionnaires for each course
will become available to the in-
