Exercise 07

The faculty and administrators of the College of Architecture are interested in students' views of teaching and learning. Design and produce a survey to help assess a faculty member's teaching effectiveness in a lecture course or in a studio course. Consider Troyka 16a, 16b and 16c. Explain your choices of sampling, closed verses open-ended questions and rating scales. Comment on administration procedures and schedule.
