Final tests and evaluations - Rev. 3/9/11

Basic English instructors – You will find packets containing your final tests and evaluations in the milk crate on the counter across from the mailboxes.

Please review the following information:

Course evaluations. All packets contain course evaluation forms for your students to complete.

• Evaluation forms are provided in an envelope with your name and course on it. Please return the completed forms for each class in the appropriate envelope.
• I realize that your students may need some assistance with the instructions on the forms. Insofar as possible, please allow them sufficient privacy so that they can provide their true opinions and comments about the class. If possible, have another instructor assist your students while you do the same for that instructor’s class. (Thank you to Tafsir for this great idea!)
  

Labels. Your packets also contain labels for the students to use on their tests or answer sheets. Please have them use these. It makes it much easier for us to identify a test as belonging to a particular student in a particular class.
If you have a student who is in your class but does not have a label, go ahead and let the student take the test. Registration will be re-checked when final grades are entered. Please be sure that the student puts his name, CougarID number and course on the test or Scantron sheet.

Tests.

• Basic English 1, Basic English 2, Basic English 3, Basic English 7. Students will write on the tests, not a separate answer sheet.
• Basic Communication. You should fill out the assessment sheet for each student.
• Basic Reading 1. You should give the Reading section (pages 1 – 19) of the TABE (9E). Students will mark their answers on Scantron sheets.
• Other Basic English classes. Tests are in your packets. Students will mark their answers on Scantron sheets. NOTE for Basic English 6: These tests go beyond 50 questions, but the Scantron sheets have only 50 spaces. Therefore, you will need to use two Scantron sheets per student: #1 - #50 will be on the first Scantron sheet, and #50 through the end of the test will be on the second. Be sure that students write their names on the second sheet.
  

ALL – Please drop off the completed tests to me right away so we can get the results to the students without delay.

Scantron notes

• Scantron answer sheets must be completed using #2 pencil. The scoring machine will not read ink. Be sure your students know about this ahead of time so they bring pencils with them to the test. Before the test begins, show the students how to correctly mark their choices so the machine will read them.
• For those tests with Scantron answer sheets, students should not write in the test booklets – only on the answer sheets.
  

If you have any questions, please let me know.
