A. GUIDELINES FOR INTERPRETING THE REPORT

The teacher evaluation report is for developmental purposes and is meant to help identify strengths and areas for

improvement. Please consider the following recommendations that will aid in interpreting the results:

1. Examine the report by taking note of patterns in order to consider how best to act on the feedback your students

have taken the time to provide. Use the reflection section at the end to reflect upon how you might act on the

feedback.

2. These evaluations stem from student perception and thus constitute one source of evidence among others as to

the quality of your teaching. Any response to the feedback should be based on the most representative results

rather than on outlying responses.

3. Upon getting a general sense as to what has gone well, and which areas may require attention and

improvement, it is important to drill down to the related questions. These questions can help guide future action

if feedback from students suggest areas for improvement.

4. Keep both the likert scale and written comments in mind while reading through the report. High scores (4+)

suggest student consensus indicating a strength. On the other hand, low scores (2-) should be considered as

an area that requires immediate developmental focus based on student feedback.

D. STRENGTHS

What are LI WENCONG's strengths?

Comments

Very fun TA, slightly disappointed that she will be moving on from teaching. She was very engaging and very patient in running

through both EC33303's concepts as well as the STATA application questions. Extremely informative.

Engaging and approachable tutor.

Takes her time to thoroughly explain the economic meaning of the stats and how to use stata effectively

E. AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT

What improvements would you suggest to LI WENCONG?

Comments

Slight language barrier and could further unpack some questions.

F. SELF-REFLECTION

1. When comparing these results to the previous year's results, what areas have shown improvement?

2. What areas remain to be improved and what are the necessary steps / actions to do so?

3. Are there colleagues who could potentially guide me?

4. Are there issues that require departmental or institutional support?
