• Introduction
• Pace University has a course evaluation at end of
  every semester. Assessment Dept. sends out paper
  based forms to all courses.
• Students fill the form, the forms are collected
  and sent back to the Dept.
• The distribution and collection takes about
  1-11/2 week.
• These forms are passed through a scanner, and
  then results generated.
• The result generation takes about a month.
• A substitute to this method is Online Course
