At many institutions of higher education end of Course evaluations (EOCs) are used to gain feedback on an instructor's teaching effectiveness. However, a majority of students lack understanding of what the EOC is or its purpose. The current project was employed to identify students' knowledge and attitudes regarding EOC assessments. Results indicated that over 70% of students complete each of their EOCs each semester. Additionally, a majority of students believed they were qualified to rate their instructors while also stating that more open-ended questions should be asked to evaluation their instructors. This poster will focus on results of this research and how it shaped the development of a new institution-wide EOC evaluation system. Participants will be able to interact with the presenters to ask questions and identify various ways to identify student knowledge and perceptions of EOC assessments within their institutions.
