In the faculty evaluation system at Elon University, teaching is of paramount importance and the undergraduate Student Perceptions of Teaching (Unit IV) is a necessary tool in assessing learning in the classes of teaching faculty and others in the University community who serve a teaching role. This component of the evaluation system is discussed below. However, reflecting the broadening scope of teaching and learning activities at the University, evaluation of faculty members’ overall teaching effectiveness should always be considered in relation to at least one other form of teaching evaluation including teaching portfolios, peer evaluations, and other devices.

Students at the graduate level complete a separate, but similar form, Student Evaluation of Graduate Courses .
