Paper SRTE Frequently Asked Questions
For answers to questions not listed here, please e-mail us at

When are SRTEs processed?
SRTEs are due at the
Schreyer Institute for Teaching Excellence no later than three business
weeks following the last day of classes for a given semester. Please check
the SRTE Calendar for specific dates.
What is the minimum number of SRTE forms I can order?
The minimum order for any given course is ten forms. SRTE forms are good for three
years from the date printed, so you should be able to use all ten forms within the
next three years.
What is the minimum number of SRTE forms I can submit and still get a report?
The Schreyer Institute for Teaching
Excellence produces reports for classes where five or more SRTEs are returned.
For groups under five, we suggest keeping them at the department level as evidence that the
professor taught the course and evaluate the course with a different instrument for
that semester.
We do not report on courses with less than 5 sheets for several reasons.
- With a limited number of responses the valitity of the evaluation is questionable.
- It would be easy for an instructor to identify an individual student's responses with
such a limited number of responses
