Developing a Visual Summary of Evaluation Responses

The following chart is an example of the visual summary of your evaluations that can be produced by recording the number of positive and negative responses for each criterion. In this case, the results of 10 evaluations were sorted according to the 9 categories of the Teaching Behaviours Inventory (you may also choose to sort by question or theme). These results were then transformed into a graph, which represents the number of positive and negative responses per category. This visual representation provides an immediate depiction of an instructor’s strengths – in this case, speech while teaching, pacing, and organization – as well as the instructor’s weaknesses – clarity, expression, and disclosure. This exercise allows instructors to prioritize areas for future teaching development and investigation on future evaluations.
