- NOTICE: Student Evaluation of Teaching and Learning (SETL) http://setl.hku.hk
- The
Student Evaluation of Teaching and Learning (SETL)
is used for improvement of teaching and learning
so your response is crucial for enhancing
students' learning experience.
- Please go to the weblink http://setl.hku.hk where you should see a list of all forms that you need to complete. Please note that your evaluation will be saved anonymously, without any identification. There are separate forms for the course, teacher (and if appropriate) tutor and demonstrator. There are instructions, an FAQ link and a link for you to report any missing courses at the weblink.
