The basic process for course evaluations remains the same as in the past and instructors are expected to reserve time in class for students to complete them.  The primary difference this year is that students will complete them electronically using the AEFIS system – paper copies of the evaluations are no longer available.  The system is mobile friendly, so they can use a phone, laptop or other device of their choice.  Nearly 100% of WSB students have their own laptop, notebook, or phone to use for their evaluations.

AEFIS (Assessment, Evaluation, Feedback & Intervention System) is an online tool for creating, distributing, and managing digital course evaluation surveys.
At UW-Madison, it is primarily for conducting end of semester and midterm course and instructor evaluations.

The following is a brief review of how AEFIS integrates with courses:

• You will get an email telling you that students will have access to the course evaluation.  Students will also receive an individualized email with a link to the evaluation, although they can access it via their Student Center, too. 
• They will have one to two weeks to complete the evaluation and will receive a reminder email every 3-4 days either until they complete it or the course evaluation period is over.
• Sometime after grades have posted, you’ll get an email from the system with instructions for accessing your evaluation results.
• Online classes will be evaluated as usual.

Please remind/encourage your students about the importance of filling out the evaluations.
