Motivated students who may have been unaware of their subpar performance in a course will now have an opportunity to take ownership of their education and have frank discussions with either teaching fellows or professors, while resident tutors and deans can be better informed of their students’ overall well being. Moreover, much like how the current Q Guide measures professors’ performance at the end of the term, an enforceable and online midterm evaluation system for professors...
