Early Semester Course Feedback Timeline

The Teaching and Assessment Faculty Senate Committee (TACo) has developed an Early Semester Course Feedback (ESCF) tool within the SPOT system. This allows you to solicit student feedback in your 8-week and 16-week courses in fall and spring semesters. Asking students to provide constructive feedback early in a course can be an effective method of assessing instruction. Reports are provided only to the instructors and will be available within 2 business days after your survey's end date.

Login at wvu.bluera.com/WVU to access your current ESCF surveys and previously published reports. If you are prompted to choose a User Group, select Student Feedback from the drop-down list. If you wish to participate in the ESCF process, click on the "View and manage questionnaire settings" task for that course section, click Opt in, modify the start and end date for the survey, then click on Finalize.

If you need assistance, submit a service request ticket.
