Beginning in Spring 2023, NYU Course Evaluations in Albert were renamed Course Feedback and moved to a new platform called Blue. Blue is more modern and usable, has built-in reporting, and is accessible via NYU Brightspace.

Why the Transition

  • The Ad Hoc Committee on Course Evaluations  conducted a review of the scholarly literature, assessed best practices across peer institutions related to course feedback, and consulted NYU faculty experts, and, in October 2021, issued a report that identified a need to update questions, in an effort to reduce bias, and give faculty different ways to access and review their own course evaluation data; and 
  • The need to retire our current system, which will no longer be supported by the vendor.

NYU Course Feedback - Common Questions

Please note: The following questions may be updated as needed throughout 2023. The October 2021 Report of the Ad Hoc Committee on Course Evaluations identified a need to update questions, in an effort to reduce bias, and give faculty different ways to access and review their own course evaluation data

Governance Committee 

A faculty and student governance committee will oversee the transition to the new platform (Blue) and new common questions. Members include representatives from the Tenured/Tenure Track Faculty Senators Council (T-FSC), Continuing Contract Faculty Senators Council (C-FSC), and Student Senators Council (SSC).
