Tips for increasing response rate
- Scheduling time during class is the best way to increase response rates. It is important to consider strategy when scheduling.
- Scheduling time in the middle of class can capture the most student involvement
- Schedule time on a day that has a quiz/test or other important activity
- Communicate through a myCourses announcement as well on the syllabus so they are aware ahead of time
- Remind students to bring a device (mobile or otherwise) to class so they can participate in the evaluation process
- Ensure that all students have access to the evaluation
- Build buy-in - Explain to students why their feedback is important to you and how you use their feedback, specific examples are helpful
- Although students do get system reminders to do their evaluations, it’s helpful to add personalized reminders
- Consider adding the evaluation as a calendar event to your Canvas course as an additional reminder for the students. For help adding these see https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-12797-415241296
