UNH Student Experiences of Learning (SEL) Survey (Blue) Data Integrity Gateway (DIG): Handling Low Enrollment Courses

Summary

This article is intended for Student Experiences of Learning (SEL) Coordinators. This article will describe how to handle course surveys for a course with low enrollment

 

Content

If the course can be cross-listed with another or another section of that course, the system will take the sum total of all cross-listed courses as its student count.

Handling Low Enrollment Courses

UNH defines low enrollment as less than 6 students in a course. For more information about this see Student Experiences of Learning policies and procedures .

Courses that come into the DIG with less than 6 students will be automatically set to Evaluate = No.  Consideration for course enrollment in the survey process includes verifying if the course can be cross-listed with another course within Blue. If it can and the combined enrollment sum meets the 6 or more criteria then it no longer is considered low enrollment and a survey invitation will be sent to students in the cross listed courses.

 

Student Experience Options aside of Blue:

Below are some questions to include:

  • Your year, major and (if desired) your expected grade
  • What did you learn in this course, and did it meet your expectations? Why or why not?
  • What aspects of the course were effective in helping you master the material? You may wish to choose a class session that was most inspiring and discuss why.
  • What aspects of the course would you suggest the instructor reconsider in future iterations? You may wish to choose a class session that you found less successful than others and explain.
  • Further feedback for the course.

 

Paper Form

Faculty can use paper forms if needed. Your Dean's Office has a copy of a PDF survey that you may also use. Please contact them directly for access.

Courses that were marked as "Evaluate = No" can not be changed to "Evaluate = Yes" once the surveys have opened. In the event that a course should have been set to be surveyed but was not updated to Evaluate = Yes during the DIG process, the information below can be used by Instructors to have students provide course feedback outside of Blue.
