The University of the Fraser Valley (UFV) invites you to share your feedback on the instructors teaching your current courses.
Your input plays a vital role in helping faculty, departments, and the university better understand and respond to the needs and experiences of students like you.
UFV uses Explorance Blue, a secure and anonymous online evaluation tool, to collect and compile your feedback.
Once submitted, your responses are delivered confidentially to the appropriate UFV administrators and faculty members.
Note: Instructors do not receive feedback until final grades for the course have been submitted.
Not all courses are selected for student feedback.
If your course is included, you’ll receive an invitation to participate.
You’ll be notified through:
- A notification on your Brightspace course dashboard
- An email sent to your UFV student account
Follow the steps below to complete your Student Feedback on Teaching and contribute to continuous improvement at UFV.
