Blue by Explorance is a holistic platform built to handle versatile feedback collection and provide automated analytics and reporting. It was selected by the Faculty Senate to replace the Anthology IDEA Course Evaluation platform in 2025. The Faculty Senate Evaluation Committee provides oversight to the course evaluation administration process, and the platform is managed by the Office of Institutional Research and Planning (IRP) through the Institutional Effectiveness Unit.
Evaluating Teacher Effectiveness and Course Effectiveness
At UNCW, in accordance with the Faculty Handbook and developed by the Faculty Senate Evaluation Committee, the course evaluation is designed with 17 core questions focused on gaining student perceptions of teaching effectiveness and student learning experiences with each of their courses.
Improving teaching and course effectiveness is a priority at UNCW. The dashboard analytics and reports provide informative student feedback intended to improve student learning. The intent of this process, while supporting core faculty processes, is to provide faculty with relevant information that can ultimately guide and strengthen teaching and curriculum improvement.
