HWS uses a software called EvaluationKit to allow faculty to receive feedback from students based on course-specific learning objectives. Faculty can copy the Student Learning Feedback Form (SLFF) template and customize it to reflect the goals, concepts, and skills taught in each of their classes; then they deploy that form to their students using EvaluationKit. These customized forms can be used across semesters each time the course is taught.
After creating the forms in EvaluationKit, they will remain in your account; you will be able to use the same form every time you teach the same class, or you will be able to make a copy of the form and edit it if your course objectives change in a future semester. This also means that you must attach your SLFFs to your classes each semester.
