Your perception and evaluation of your learning experience is very important to help us improve the quality of teaching at UVU. Please take the time to complete the online Course Evaluation Survey (CES) at the end of each class. When the system opens for that semester, links to the CES become available in Canvas. There are also periodic reminder emails containing access links send out until the surveys close, or you take the survey. If you have questions about the survey system, you can enter a help request at this link. BI Services Help

Thank you for your support of teaching excellence at UVU.
Once the course survey opens, you will be notified in Canvas. At that point, links to the survey also become available for each class in Canvas. You will also receive an email reminder for each class you are attending each week the survey is open or until you submit a survey for that class. You may also access the survey using the link in the email.
Yes, you will have an opportunity to fill out a survey for each instructor assigned to that course.
This survey protects your identity. Your responses cannot be linked to you personally, or your student records. The survey results are given to the teacher in summary form after grades are submitted. You should, however, take care not to include any information in your written comments that may identify you.
If you would rather not take the survey, you may choose not to submit a survey without any penalty. However, we strongly encourage you to take this opportunity to evaluate the quality of instruction at UVU. Your instructors use the survey results to improve the quality of teaching for future students.
You will have the opportunity to print your confirmation receipt after you have submitted your survey. You can also return to the course in Canvas and use the link there to access the survey. Also, the link in your email can be used to enter the survey.
Most surveys are open for a total of 19 days, 13 days before the end of the course and 6 days after. The length of time that the survey is open depends on the length of your class. See the Key CES Dates schedule for exact dates for each part of term.
While the survey is open, you may access it through Canvas or using the link in the email notification you received. However, once survey period closes, you will not be able to change the survey. In these cases, you may provide feedback to your instructor directly. Or you may contact the department chair who could present your feedback anonymously to the faculty member. We are sure your instructors would appreciate either option.
CES emails are sent to your UVU account. The CES emails will not be sent to your personal email and you may miss them if you have not linked your UVU email to your personal email. If you have linked your UVU email to your personal email, the CES email may have been sent to your junk/SPAM folder. Additionally, the email will return to us labeled "undeliverable" if your personal email inbox is full. If you are still not receiving your CES emails after doing these things, enter a help request with an explanation of your problem at this link. BI Services Help
