Accessing the Course Evaluation in Canvas

Accessing the Course Evaluation in Canvas 

Please follow the steps below to ensure that the course evaluation appears in your Canvas course/s and when to inform students about the process.

Step 1: Send out an announcement on the first day of class informing students about the evaluation process, when the evaluation will be available, and when it is due.

Step 2: For your Fall 2025 courses, after October 27, 2025 and before November 24, 2025, click on Assignments (on the left side panel) to verify that the evaluation is listed.

Step 3: Look for the “Final UCSB Evaluation - Mandatory”

Step 4: Please do not make any changes.  

Step 5: If you do not see the evaluation listed, please contact your Program Manager right away and let them know.

Step 6: Include the evaluation process and the dates when the evaluation will be available and when it will be due in the Syllabus. The Syllabus must be visible to students 2 weeks before the first day of class.

Step 7: Send out another announcement the week before the evaluation will be available, reminding students to fill it out and complete the evaluation by the due date.

If you have any questions about this process, please contact your PaCE Program Manager.
