Extra Question(s): List up to 10 additional questions. You may write your own extra questions or choose from over 100 sample questions in the Extra Questions Sampler (doc). These extra items are analyzed separately and are not included in the analysis of the standard items. return to filling out the form

Dates: You must give us one date so we will know approximately when you plan to administer the survey. If scheduling for a 14-week class, please do not schedule the date of the survey to be administered until after week 8 of the semester. We will mail the survey material to you approximately one week before the date you give us. You may administer the survey any time after receiving the material. return to filling out the form

Data Retention:
Please store your reports in a safe place. You may need them later for promotions or awards. Copies are available at a cost of 10cents per page starting with the Spring 2003 semester.

Handicapped Students:
If you have a visually impaired student(s) in your class, or if a student(s) has a dexterity or writing problem, please contact us to request a large print/easy mark edition of the survey form.

Distribution:
Reports are mailed after grade lists have been submitted to the Registrar's office, and all survey processing has been completed. This entire process takes 3-4 weeks after the last day of class.

Confidentiality:
Electronic files of Student Survey data are maintained for the purpose of constructing intra-department comparative tables. Files (SOS and Dept.) do not contain faculty names. Since it has been determined that these files are public records under state open records law, they are retained for six years.
Validity:
Analyses are based on the responses of the students present in the classroom at the time of the survey. Students may not complete surveys in the SOS Office. To obtain reliable student ratings, it is recommended that data be collected from at least ten students and from at least two-thirds of the class. A computerized survey report is not produced for less than five students. If you have reason to think that the results of a survey might be badly skewed for any reason, contact the Student Opinion Survey Office to reschedule.
