UT Tyler will open the spring 2014 standardized university course evaluation system for two weeks, beginning 12:01 a.m. Monday, April 21. The evaluation period will close at 12:01 a.m. Friday, May 2.

Once logged into myUTTyler, students access the evaluation system by selecting the “Evaluate My Courses” link. A similar link can be found in the notifications box in myUTTyler. Instructions and access to the evaluation system are displayed in the “Student Training” box on the student home page of myUTTyler.

Students who have questions or experience difficulties in completing the course evaluations in myUTTyler may email instructorevals@uttyler.edu.

In appreciation for completing evaluations before May 2, the university will grant respondents “early access” to view their semester grades at 12:01 a.m. on Thursday, May 15. Additionally, students may choose to enter a prize drawing for one of three mini iPads at the end of the course evaluation survey.

Students who do not complete course evaluations by the end of the day May 2 must wait until 12:01 a.m. Wednesday, May 21 to have traditional access to grades through either myUTTyler or Blackboard.

If students have no courses eligible for evaluation, they will have priority access to their grades.

Evaluations are anonymous, and instructors have no ability to view individual responses. Once compiled, results are added to the university’s existing faculty evaluations website.
