Auswertungsbericht Lehrveranstaltungsevaluation an die Lehrenden

Sehr geehrter Herr Dr. Girba,

Please find attached the results of the automatic analysis belonging to the evaluation of the
course 08 W7084 Software Evolution. Type of questionnaire VORLe. Please observe: The
results first show under the heading "Globalwerte" the mean value for the following
dimensions:
- Planning and Presentation
- Manners with Students
- Interest and Relevance
- Complexity and Scope
- Overall Assessment of Course
- Overall Assessment of Lecturer
- Overall Assessment of Teaching Methods

The second part shows the results for all the questions individually.

1 equals the lowest grade (unless the question is inverted), 4 or more the highest grade. In
the group 'Complexity and Scope' the grade 3 corresponds to "exactly right".

We hope that this report is useful for the further plannung of your teaching.

Please briefly discuss the results of this evaluation with your students.

The collaborators of the Group "Hochschuldidaktik" (contact: helmut.ertel@kwb.unibe.ch)

are happy to discuss the results with you. Please bring a copy of the reports with you since
they are not accessible to anybody else but you.
