About this example

• Five questions. Ratings describe different course dimensions, not a combined validated score.
• Keep future evaluations comparable by retaining the same wording and scale.

Before you start

• State which course and delivery period the evaluation covers.
• Check whether your school requires its own evaluation system; use that process when required.
• Explain who will read responses. Review email collection and account restrictions before suggesting that answers can be anonymous.

Create your form

1. Open the example and add the course name and reporting period. Keep the scale anchors consistent.
2. Preview the three rating questions and two open questions, then create the Google Form in your account.
3. Check the respondent view and institution requirements before sharing. Compare themes across answers and choose one course improvement yourself.

Limits and settings to check

• This is a practical example, not an accredited evaluation or a validated educational measure.
• Leaving the name out does not guarantee anonymity. Settings and identifiable free-text details still matter.
• The generator creates questions; it does not score instructors or analyse responses.
