Responding to a Course Review

After submitting a course review application, instructors will receive an email notification with the results of the course review. In the case that the course did not meet the standards in the first review, instructors are able to see reviewer comments on the standards not met and have the opportunity to make the appropriate changes to the course site. Instructors will need to fill out the Faculty Response Form first, make the appropriate changes to the course site, and then submit an Amendment Form.
