Hello everyone,

I have a question about course evaluations. This was my first year trying to implement TBL into my course. However, given the different nature of the class and poor structure, I feel that the traditional course evaluation questions are not as applicable. I am pasting below the usual questions that are asked of students university-wide at Boston College. I am thinking that I would want to include more process-oriented questions, but I wanted to ask the group on thoughts and recommendations. 

Any thoughts or examples would be appreciated!
