Abstract:

Different delivery formats of education have increased rapidly over the past decade. With increases in
technology, many higher educational institutions have transitioned from traditional in-class evaluations
delivered in the classroom to the online delivery of course evaluations. While results are mixed on the
effectiveness of online evaluations, the online method of evaluating teaching effectiveness is here to stay. This paper provides an overview of the conversion to online evaluations and suggestions to increase response rates for online teacher evaluations.
