- In Fall 2023 the FCS will continue to be administered online.
- The FCS will be modified to include only the following five course operations questions that speak to the student educational experience:
- I received feedback on my work prior to the drop date.
- The course handouts/postings contain all the information I need about the organization of this course.
- Students are treated fairly.
- The class meets as scheduled and on time.
- The instructor is available for consultation as specified on the course handouts/postings.
- The other nine questions, optional questions and written comments sections on the FCS have been removed.
The survey items for all participants are scored on the following alphabetical scale:
A =Agree
B =Somewhat agree
C =Neither agree nor disagree
D =Somewhat disagree
E =Disagree
F = Does not apply / no opinion
Paper-based in-class evaluation has been suspended in Winter 2020 through Fall 2023
Faculty/Course Survey results are available online via the "Faculty/Course Survey" link on my.torontomu.ca, "Reports" tab. The FCS reports are presented in the form of frequency distribution. They are available for individual faculty members and contract lecturers only.
For tenure-stream (probationary and tenured) and limited term faculty
- Information collected through the FCS is available to individual faculty members through the FCS portal for formative purposes and shall not be included in faculty annual reports.
- Faculty members may choose to include FCS results in their teaching dossiers for the purpose of tenure and promotion but in no case shall be required to submit FCS results arising out of courses taught during this transitional period. No negative inference will be drawn as a result of their absence.
For CUPE Unit 1 & 2 contract lecturers
- FCS results for Fall 2020, Winter 2021, Fall 2021, Winter 2022, Fall 2022, Winter 2023 and Fall 2023 will not be automatically uploaded to CUPE Unit 1 currency reports. CUPE 3904 Unit 1 members who want to include these FCS results in their currency reports must upload them manually.
- A negative inference will not be drawn if these are not submitted. In addition, Contract Lecturer Appointments Committees (CLACs) should not provide additional scoring to applicants who provide their FCS scores for the above noted semesters in their application.
