Periodically, information will be posted regarding Watermark’s Course Evaluations & Surveys (CES) tool to help users better understand Wichita State’s course evaluation tool.
Today’s focus is on the basic timeline.
- The CES administrator programs the pre-determined dates for each process. This pre-determined schedule cannot be modified.
 - The CES tasks are sent at midnight on the scheduled start date and will end at 11:59 p.m. on the scheduled end date.
 - The manage course process for instructors: Instructors have 10 days from notification of the opt-out window to delete courses from CES.
 - CES evaluations will be open for students for varying lengths of time, depending upon the length of the course term:
- Fall and spring one-week to four-week courses: Two days
 
- Fall and spring five-week to 16+ week courses: 10 days
 
- Summer one- and two-week courses: Two days
 
- Summer four-week to 10+ week courses: Seven days
 
 - Current CES Results will be available at the end of the semester. Results will continue to remain accessible afterwards.
- The availability date will be the Friday after grades are due to the Registrar.
 
 - A full timeline with specific dates is on the website. These dates will also appear as separate posts in WSU Today, with emphasis on the most relevant information for a specific date.
 - There is a dedicated CES website that includes additional information.
