We invite faculty, staff, graduate students and community partners to evaluate student presentations to provide constructive and positive feedback. Providing students with meaningful feedback greatly enhances their learning and achievement.
It is our goal to provide each student with positive, learner-centered feedback from two different evaluators. If you’d like to serve as an evaluator, please click here to register by April 7th.
