FT^2 Presentations on Remote Instruction

NOTE FROM: Adrienne Lavine

Dear Colleagues,

We have all transitioned to remote instruction in an extraordinarily short time. Many of us are wondering how successful our efforts have been, whether our students are still able to learn well, and whether we should be making any adjustments to our teaching approaches. With that in mind, CAT is providing a template questionnaire for gathering mid-quarter feedback from students. This questionnaire, which is built into CCLE, can be used entirely at the discretion of each individual instructor. It can be adopted as is or tailored to a particular course. Once adopted, the questionnaire and student responses are available only to individual instructors to use as they see fit.

At this page, you will find a preview of the questionnaire, instructions on how to post it within your CCLE class site, and a link to a video (courtesy of CEILS) that explains how to modify the questions. If you have any questions about this questionnaire or how to tailor it to your course, please contact us at help@teaching.ucla.edu.

Best wishes,

Adrienne Lavine
