Course evaluation data beginning Fall 2018 (201910) has been imported from Academic Analytics to Watermark for ease of access. Tk20 data* was imported to Academic Analytics, therefore, the data collected by that system is also available in Watermark as of Summer 2025. The Spring 2020 data from the Evaluation Kit (listed below) are also included in Watermark.
*Note the limitation of Tk20 data noted below.
Academic Analytics collected course evaluation data as well as credentials entered by faculty. Course evaluation data was imported to Watermark in the Summer of 2025. The self-reported faculty credentials were extracted, and the raw data is on file with the Office of the Provost.
Available as PDFs on the UCM network.
Tk20 data was imported to Academic Analytics (https://academic-analytics.ucmo.edu; site is retired).
When UCM ended its contract with Tk20, the vendor provided UCM with a low-quality export of all the course evaluation data. This data was cleaned up and imported into the Academic Analytics platform. In a few cases, the relationship between the submission and the course section was lost, so the number of submissions you see in Academic Analytics might be different from what you see if you saved a PDF report from Tk20.
Available as PDFs on the UCM network.
Course evaluation responses are irreversibly anonymized the day after the course section's official end date. There is no way to tell which students submitted a response, even looking at the underlying database tables.
In cases where a section has fewer than two students, responses for multiple sections are pooled together to protect anonymity. Sections are only pooled together if:
If any single section in a potential pool has fewer than two students, pooling is triggered for all sections in the pool, even if some of those sections have two or more students.
Examples:
In cases where a section has fewer than two students and has no eligible sections with which to be pooled, the instructor cannot view the evaluation results because it would identify the student. However, the deans and chairs for the instructor and/or course can view the results.
Instructors can only view results for their own evaluations. In cases where a single course section has multiple instructors, the instructors cannot view one another's results. Instructors can view responses within a single section and an aggregation of all responses for all their sections within a given semester. Instructors can only view responses after they have been anonymized.
Deans and Chairs can view results for two additional groups of instructors:
Example: Professor Smith is a Math instructor who belongs to the Department of Mathematics, Actuarial Sciences, and Statistics. She also teaches a Physics course, which belongs to the Department of Physical Sciences. The chairs of both schools can view the responses for her Physics course.
Deans and Chairs can view results that have not yet been anonymized and can therefore see the names of students who submitted each response. Once anonymization occurs, Deans and Chairs can no longer see the names of students.
The following personnel can view all course evaluation responses across the university:
