ENG 151 - Academic Writing

This course assessment survey is being given out at the end of the semester to every student taking ENG 151. The English Department will use the answers to this survey to help us determine whether or not our ENG 151 courses are fulfilling the goals we have for first-year writing. This survey is not assessing the instructor or the student but the course itself. Your answers to this survey are anonymous. Questions about your participation are anonymous and meant to give aggregate data to help the English Department understand the results.
