Evaluations inspire teaching successStudents are seen walking at Thammasat University's Rangsit campus in Pathum Thani. However, student evaluations make up only a fraction of a lecturer's overall performance in the university organisation. Yes, student evaluations can be problematic, and one does need to distinguish between frivolous complaints and authentic criticisms. There are colleagues of mine who do discuss their student evaluations openly, and they are constantly tinkering with their practice, delivery, and assessments in direct response to student concerns. This deeply underestimates the sophistication of the Thai university student, who I know also values quality and rigor, and not just easy grades.
