Penn State Student Feedback

SEEQ: Penn State’s instrument for gathering student feedback.

The Student Educational Experience Questionnaire (SEEQ) replaces the former instrument (SRTE) as of Fall 2023. The SEEQ was created as part of a new Faculty Teaching Assessment Framework proposed by the University Faculty Senate and implemented by the Vice Provost for Faculty Affairs.

The Schreyer Institute for Teaching Excellence (SITE) administers the SEEQ on behalf of the university. SITE faculty consultants are available to discuss SEEQ results with instructors and TAs.

Announcements

  • Full-semester (15-week) courses: SEEQs begin the week after the Late Drop deadline and are open for 2 weeks during weeks 13-14. They end on Sunday at 11:59 on the Sunday before the last week of class. Students requested that the SEEQs end before the last week of a 15-week course.

  • Shorter courses: The offering period is calculated differently.
    1. The length of the offering period is determined by the number of instructional weeks in the course up to a maximum of 10 weekdays.
      • A 7.5-week course has an 8-weekday offering period.
      • A 12-week course has a 10-weekday offering period.
    2. First, identify the end date for the SEEQs, which is the day before final exams. If finals begin on a Thursday, the end date is Wednesday; if finals start on Monday, the end date is Sunday.
    3. Second, backwards from this day, one weekday for each week of the course. For a 6-week course with an end-date on Wednesday, the start date would be the Wednesday of the previous week.

  • Remember that SRTE results from 2020 are available only to the instructor.
