This is a Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) between the campus community and ICIT to document:
Class Climate is the campus enterprise online course evaluation system. Departments will provide evaluation questions which will be put into an electronic format by ICIT. Students will be invited to complete the evaluation through emails sent automatically by the system. Results of evaluations will be sent to department chairs and their designees.
Departments will send a list of questions (scaled, single answer, multiple answer, or free response) to ICIT through evals@uww.edu. Departments may reuse previous questionnaires and are encouraged to use the same questionnaire department wide. Departments will also identify participating instructors and courses.
