Course Evaluations are an important component of our instructional program. An on-line course evaluation system was developed to allow each student ample time to evaluate the course and instructor, thus providing the institution with meaningful numerical scores and detailed commentary while minimizing the loss of instructional time in the classroom. The evaluation window for Winter 2011 will open on Monday, January 17, 2011 and will close on Friday, January 21, 2011.  To access the system during this time, simply go to evaluation and proceed through the survey.  Be sure to close the browser tab when you are finished so that your responses are saved and you are given credit for the evaluation.  You will need to use your student number (on your KWC ID card) to log into the system; however, when you log in you will be assigned a random number that will keep all your comments and scores anonymous.
