It is that time of semester where the Institutional Effectiveness Department needs to receive feedback from each of you through Student Evaluation of Instructions (SEI) surveys. We hope that you logging in through your D2L homepage will make this process a little easier. Click on the SEI Survey link below to open the log-page. Using your Brightspace email address, log-in to the SEI survey. Using your Brightspace email address allows us to populate all your classes in one place. Once you log-in, a page will open with the list of courses that you are currently enrolled in. Just click on one class at a time to answer the questions on the survey related to yourself, the course and your instructor. Please submit any comments that you feel are necessary to express your feelings about the class. Once you have clicked on the SUBMIT button, you will automatically be taken back to the page with your list of classes so that you are able to complete any additional surveys. Please know that the answers that you give are completely anonymous.
Thank you for taking the time to participate in the SEI survey for 2019. This information is gathered and viewed to ensure that we are meeting the needs of all students enrolled at OCtech.
