The purpose of a course evaluation is to ensure that your course is, in fact, serving the intended purpose and

assessing the learning outcomes and instructional content. Standardized templates are useful for learners,

faculty, and the organization because they allow you to establish expectations and ensure data collected

give you the right kind of information upon which to make evidence-based decisions related to meeting

learners' and the organization's needs and goals.
