This list is an incredible resource. Thank you! A little about me and our program. I work for the Adult Literacy Department of DeKalb Technical College in Georgia. I am Lead Teacher at a small ESL program that meets in a concert hall. We have beginning through intermediate level classes and we primarily interact with the Hispanic community. Classes are free. I am developing an informal evaluation form for students to fill out for their teachers. This form is for the teacher and program staff and won't be used for any formal reporting. What questions have you found most useful on forms like this? I usually ask students to rate the types of activities and materials we use in class. Pair work (2's) 5 4 3 2 1 Journaling 5 4 3 2 1 Red picture dictionary 5 4 3 2 1 Blue Workplace +1 5 4 3 2 1 Worksheets 5 4 3 2 1 Then I have some open ended questions such as: I tell students to use Spanish if it is easier for them to answer the question. We really want to know what they think. I like.... I do not like..... My favorite activity is...... I wish the teacher would..... I need...... Does anyone have other suggestions? Have you found particular questions that produced helpful responses? Thank you for any suggestions. Chris Mathew cleomathew@aol.com Lead ESL Teacher at Plaza Fiesta DeKalb Tech. Georgia
