Viewing Evaluation Results
• From here, you can choose between three different formats for results:
– BU Report: a PDF report with results from the course with the comparison group and
comments for free-text items (comments for Likert items are not included).
– Detailed Report + Comments: a PDF report with results from the course with the
comparison group and comments for both Likert items and free-text responses.
– RAW DATA: an Excel spreadsheet with one record for each response (no identifying
information is included), which you can use to match open-ended comments with
evaluation responses
Viewing Evaluation Results
• If you have multiple courses in a project, you can select a group of courses
and generate a Batch Report. This produces either one PDF file containing
individual course reports or multiple PDF files, one for each course, in a
ZIP file. You can choose to include or exclude the written comments.
