What is a Midterm Student Feedback (MSF)?

The Midterm Student Feedback is a three-step, confidential process where you work with a CRLT-Engin Instructional Consultant to gather student feedback. 

  1. You will meet with a CRLT-Engin Instructional Consultant to discuss your experiences in the classroom and how the consultant can best help.
  2. Your CRLT-Engin Instructional Consultant will observe your class and gather anonymous feedback from your students (after you have stepped out of the classroom). Customized surveys are also available based on instructors’ needs. 
  3. You will meet with the CRLT-Engin Instructional Consultant to discuss the feedback and identify strategies and techniques to build on your teaching strengths and improve the class based on the feedback, which will be summarized in a report.

Why should you request a Midterm Student Feedback?

  • To obtain information about how your students feel about your teaching before the end of the term.
  • To reflect on ways to enhance your instruction and confirm which techniques are working well in the classroom or lab. 
  • To poll your students about specific concerns that you have that you do not feel comfortable asking yourself.
