Question Personalization (QP)

Question Personalization (QP) is the process whereby you have the opportunity to add specific questions to the SLEQ form. The purpose of these questions would be to gain more information from students to facilitate course or program development. The questions added by the department are course level questions and should not be about the instructor, instead, they should be about aspects for the course the instructor has no control over. For example, ask student what they thought about the physical space (classroom, lab 鈥�) or听ask the students how they think the specific course fits in to the program as a whole.听听

A list of curated questions听are听now available in the BLUE evaluation system for departments to select and use during question personalization. Please review the included list of questions now to help guide your next question personalization process.
