by using an Informal Early Feedback (IEF) form early in this semester, you can receive timely feedback to immediately implement. You’ll get important information right now about what is successful and not as successful on both the teaching and learning. In this session, we will share with you how to maximize gathering and analyzing the online (informal and formal) student feedback.

It is most helpful to have a limited number of items, and leave plenty of time and space for descriptive comments from the students. It is also helpful to have specific questions rather than general evaluative ones. For example, a question such as “Did the instructor make good use of examples and illustrations?” will yield much more useful results and practical information than “Rate the instructor overall.” Once you have collected your informal early feedback, there are three steps you need to take.
