Group Presentation Evaluation Feedback Form: Fill & Download for Free

I guess a students' feedback is a valuable input to rate a teacher. Back then in my undergrad days, in my sophomore year, we had a system of giving feedback about the professors who taught us to the head of the department.It had a feedback form which had to be filled. The form was exhaustive which rated the professor on various attributes, on a scale of 1-5, 1 being low/bad and 5 being excellent/high. The attributes varied from the ability to teach the concepts well, to the ability to finish the syllabus in the prescribed time. It also included the professors ability to keep the class under control and to the ability to empathise with the students.I felt that this system was an efficient way to rate of a professor, provided the students showed seriousness and filled it in an unbiased and unprejudiced way. There were instances when the quality of feedback was rather derogatory with lewd words used against the professor. The miscreants couldn't be found since the identities were kept anonymous. And then there were people who thought it would be amusing to spend their "precious" time in drawing cartoons in the forms, rather than filling a lame feedback form. These forms were evaluated and then the most sincere feedbacks were considered.EDIT: I feel that a teacher who uses creative ways to make learning interesting will definitely be popular and liked by the students. To cite an example: in the later part of my undergrad years, a professor (say M) along with the best teaching abilities, initiated us into group activities. The group activities consisted of making posters on the subject on a chart paper, making 3D models and presenting them in front of the class. He divided the class of 60 students into 10 groups and each group had a leader. Let me tell you how these activities helped us:It helped us develop leadership qualities, which came in handy in our final year project work.It helped us develop oratory and public speaking skills, which helped us in the interviews and other occasions.Lastly, it helped us to develop deep knowledge in our subjects, which helped us perform well in our examinations.In other words he prepared us for the real world out there. So no wonder he was popular among his students. And he was given the best feedback among all the professors. I still remember writing in the feedback form about how he was an example to the other teachers.I hope this answered your question, Arnab Animesh Das!Thank you for asking!

Most people fear public speaking more than death! (According to self development expert Brian Tracey).As someone who’s worked as behavioral psychotherapist, I can tell you that overcoming pubic speaking anxiety breaks down into three parts:Learning How to Turn On Your Body’s Deep Relaxation Response in Just Seconds at Will,Developing a Core Set of Basic Public Speaking Skills (Don’t Overwhelm Yourself).Practicing Your Public Speaking by Gradually Increasing The Number of People You Present to; and then:Gradually Adding New, More Advanced Speaking Skills to Your Core Basics (only as each new addition is mastered).Let’s explore each of these steps in a little more detail.Learning How to Turn On Your Body’s Deep Relaxation Response in Just Seconds at Will:Learning how to quickly self-induce a deep state of relaxation will empower you to stay calm as you overcome that initial high anxiety public speaking hurtle.It will also enable you to learn and develop in practice, much faster as a new public speaker.And of course mastering the relaxation response has incredible benefits that can positively impact almost every area of your life, from your health and the quality of your relationships, to the quality of your sleep and your effectiveness as a leader or manager.So how do you actually, turn on your bodies relaxation response in seconds at will?Well, I’ve developed what I call The Instant Relaxation Response:It’s a technique I developed working as a psychotherapist and behavior consultant, training, counseling and working with people who work in some of the most stressful work environments imaginable.It also proved to be a powerful technique for helping the most emotionally distressed couples I’ve worked as a couples counselor, heal together emotionally and communicate very effectively, often saving their marriages as a result.The Instant Relaxation technique is actually a two-step technique that enables you to quickly and effectively start to self-induce a complete state of physical and emotional relaxation in just seconds.Chronic stress , if left unmanaged, can flood your body with toxic , anxiety inducing stress chemicals like noradrenaline, adrenaline and cortisol.

Developing a Core Set of Basic Public Speaking Skills:Many people make the mistake of beginning their public speaking learning journey by watching the world’s best public speakers and exploring some of the dozens of advanced public speaking tips.Yet what they really need to do is start by learning and then practicing a core set of very basic public speaking behaviors to mastery and then gradually build more advanced presentation skills on top a solid basic foundation.For example, learning to speak publicly in structured yet informal way comes first.Creating a structured visually stunning presentation and basic written outline for your speech or presentation is a great way of deeply engaging your audience and providing structure and coherence to your presentation.You really want to work on ditching your speaking notes.Instead use a slide presentation, with power-point or Prezi with only minimal textual cues to prompt your and structure your natural speaking process.Your ultimate goal is to speak conversationally to your growing audience, like you would sharing a great story with a friend.Informal convectional flow is the name of the game here.I recommend, “creating a practice deck” and writing point form speaking notes on a topic you’re really passionate about and know well to practice with.You can even have someone create that visually stunning power-point presentation for you on Fiverr or Upwork for as little as $5-$20.Checkout the infographic I share at the end of this post for some great tips on crafting your first practice presentation notes.3.

Even better record yourself with a video recorder, webcam or even your smart phone.This way you can review your first performances. Throughout your public speaking career you always want to be looking for 1 or 2 areas (don’t overwhelm yourself with too many) at a time to improve.Make a quick note of your your next public speaking improvement goal and practice again to make that improvement a part of who you are as a public speaker.Next, it’s time to present to someone else, someone who you really feel comfortable with.Sure, this can be a family member or friend. But ideally you want to try to find someone in your network who has some familiarity with public speaking.The goal here is to let the other person know what improvement your working on and to get any corrective feedback or suggestions from them as well.Next, try your practice presentation with a small group of family, friends and/or colleagues from work.Again, let them know that you want their feedback on the quality of your presentation and for any suggestions they may have for you to improve.Ask them to evaluate both your verbal presentation and your practice deck for an areas of improvement they might see.Once you start to feel comfortable and make finish making feeback-based improvements in speaking behaviors and supporting visual presentation materials, it’s time to start:4. Gradually Adding New, More Advanced Speaking Skills to Your Core Basics.This is great!

Sri Shakthi Institute of Engineering and Technology, CoimbatoreThis college can be regarded as the worst college not only in India but also in the entire Universe.Fake Marketing : This year the college authorities claim that a guy had got an offer from Amazon for 27 Lakhs per Annum CTC. The truth is that he didn’t get job. He is currently undergoing “internship” at Amazon. At the end of internship, based on his performance he might be given a Pre-Placement Offer or a Pre-Placement Interview. By the way, even for IIT Delhi Undergraduates, the package given by Amazon was 16 Lakhs per Annum CTC only not 27 Lakhs. (Source : Uber, Amazon, Flipkart rush to IIT Delhi for placements; offer as much as Rs 36.6 lakh annually). Same thing for students placed in Tivo. They aren’t Employees. They are Interns.Collecting extra Fees : Even, if we never broke anything in lab, we have to pay “Lab Breakage” amount for each lab every semester. If you don’t pay, you won’t get hall ticket for the theory exam. Anna University Photocopy fees is 300 Rupees and Revaluation fees is 400 Rupees but they collect extra 100 Rupees(50 for photocopy + 50 for Revaluation) from students who are presently studying here and 200 Rupees(100 for photocopy + 100 for Revaluation) from students who have already completed their 4 years but still having backlogs, in the name of Demand Draft. Anyway they are going to pay on behalf of all students. So, collecting 50/100 Rupees from students would give them a huge profit every semester.Collecting Unnecessary Fines : A lot of parent’s hard earned money is wasted by paying unnecessary fines for silly reasons. If the classroom is little dirty due to papers/chocolate wrappers, the whole class has to pay a fine of 10 rupees each. If there is any ink mark on the table/desk, a huge fine will be imposed on the students who had been sitting there. If any male student is found with his shirt untucked, his ID Card would be seized and to get back his ID Card, he has to pay 50 rupees. If you are wearing sandals instead of shoes, you have to pay huge penalty. Some of the other silly reasons for which ID Card might be seized include the following:Coming late to class by few minutes(even for genuine reasons and unavoidable circumstances)For failing an Internal test.Talking with opposite gender.Under-qualified Faculties : Most of the faculties who join this Institution are themselves from yet another Tier-3 College. Some of them join after completing their Post-Graduation here. Majority of them had never qualified UGC-NET nor GATE. Sometimes, they teach wrong concepts in class. Once in 1st semester, my Physics Teacher told “log(A)*log(B) = log(A+B)”. He holds a PhD Degree in Physics.Bizzare Dress Code for Lab : Students are forced to wear Blue Coloured Lab Dress thrice a week. Sometimes, you have to wear it on Saturday also if a teacher announces that there will be a lab session that day. I don’t understand why all branch students have to wear it. The management just wants to gain money by selling the cloth to it’s students. Remember the cloak which Harry Potter uses to make himself invisible. Similarly, the management thinks that by wearing their Lab Dress, we double our IQ and perform groundbreaking experiments successfully in the Laboratory. But instead it makes the students look completely insane and ridiculous to such an extent that when I was wearing it one day, a guy mistook me for a Security Guard.Improper Teaching Methodology : As, I previously stated, the teachers are under-qualified. Most of them never teach anything in class. They simply dictate notes in class. They also correct the notes of students to check if they are noting down everything what they are dictating. If a topic is difficult, they give it as a seminar to students. There are teachers who give entire chapter as seminar to students. The assignments are usually copy+paste from some book/webpage. There is zero learning from the assignments and Homework. We have to completely rely on NPTEL Videos for studying during Semester exams.Unprofessional Paper Evaluation : If a teacher develops a hatred for a student, then that student gets low internal marks regardless of whether he/she is studious or not. If you are a teacher’s pet and if your handwriting is good, you will be blessed with high internal marks. Once, me and a classmate of mine had got same mark in an Internal test(32/50 or 64%). Here comes the twist, since that classmate was a teacher’s pet, a mark higher than 64% was uploaded in the Anna University Portal but for me the same 64% was uploaded in spite of the fact that I have a better CGPA than that classmate. Also, I have zero history of backlogs but that classmate has history of backlog in one subject. When I confronted this injustice to the teacher, the teacher told me that she had scored more than me in the re-test. I know very well that I had done my re-test pretty good. I’m definitely sure that she had never corrected the re-test papers.Unhygienic Mess food : It is not uncommon to find bugs in your plate when you are eating in the mess. Those insects are more tastier than the crap food they provide.Supplying low quality books : In 1st year, the management collected 10,000 Rupees for books. The books they provided were all written by some local authors. Especially, the mathematics textbook was pretty much non-standard. I don’t know whether the maths professors in my college have read “Introduction to Linear Algebra” by “Gilbert Strang”. It is one of the best books for studying Linear Algebra. Instead, they provided a book from a local publisher.Useless Value Added Courses : Despite the hectic curriculum, students are forced to study completely irrelevant extra courses in addition to Anna University syllabus, named as “Value Added Courses”. In the 1st semester all the branch students are forced to study “Hardware and Networking” course. For Computer Science Students, it is okay to study that but for Mechanical Engineering Students, it is totally irrelevant and useless. Also, when there are so much beautiful courses like “Machine Learning”, “Human Computer Interaction”, “Data Science”, “Natural Language Processing”, “Pattern Recognition”, etc… the 2nd year Computer Science Students are taught “Web Designing”. They even collected 1800 Rupees for that course. They called few people from a local coaching institute and asked them to teach. It was a complete waste of time and money for the students. They just taught some basic HTML and CSS, which was already learnt in highschool.Rude Teachers : Many teachers especially the former Director “Manian” used to treat students like slaves. Sometimes, Manian even hit and slap the students even for some small mistake. He pulls the student by his ear, shouts and slaps his cheek violently. If you are found talking while walking to the exam hall, he tears the hall ticket into pieces and breaks your ID Card. You have to pay a huge fine for getting a new hall ticket and temporary ID Card. As per Anna University rules, a student should enter the exam hall at-least 10 minutes before the commencement of exam, but they ring the bell 30 minutes before the commencement of exam. If you didn’t go inside the Academic Building 10 minutes after the bell has rung (that is 20 minutes before the commencement of Exam) , the building will be locked and you will not be allowed to enter the academic building till 15 minutes has passed by after the exam has started. After opening the door, Manian shouts and lectures how irresponsible we are, by not being punctual on the exam day. This increases the stress levels before the exam. No extra time will be given. Thus, you may end up not being able to complete the paper on time. Once in 2nd semester, a chemistry teacher seized the phones of those students who were unprepared for a test.No choice for Electives : Unlike IITs and IISC where you are free to choose the subjects for a semester, here even there is no choice for electives. The whole class has to study the same elective subject, which the teachers will decide.Forcing the students to fill positive review in any feedback/survey : The management never collects feedback anonymously. We have to enter our name and Register number in the feedback form. So, they know who has filled what review. Often, all students fill positive review about a faculty, as we fear that they could award low Internal marks in the upcoming semesters. Recently, we were asked to fill NAAC Student Survey form. We were asked(Read forced) not to give any low points/Rating about the Institute in the survey.Outmoded Software in Lab : Some of the systems in the labs still use Windows XP. Please, don’t insert your USB onto any system. All sorts of malware and virus would enter in case you did.Bulky Record Notes : Have you ever found any IIT student writing pages and pages of observation note and copy the same in Record note as a part of any laboratory course. Here you are forced to do that. If you submit only your Record note instead of submitting both your observation and record note, your internal marks will be reduced. We never do most of the experiments in lab due to lack of equipment. During the practical exam if you are a teacher’s pet and even if you never performed the experiment you will still get S grade. One of my record note has around 400 pages in it.Torturing students before signing in the No dues form : Regardless of whether you are a topper or a student with many history of backlogs, the teachers are so sadistic that they make you write many tests and assignments before signing in the no dues form. Some teachers might even seize your Hall ticket before their respective exam if he/she thinks that you aren’t prepared. As a result your exam fees of 150 Rupees gets wasted and you end up getting a backlog.Lack of Holidays : At most you get 2 weeks of holidays as a Semester Vacation. The college reopens before the prescribed date of Anna University. If you are absent during this time, you will be punished severely. Once a group of 2nd year Computer Science students were absent for 2 days during this time. When they came back to college, they were made to stand outside the class for one whole day(from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm). They even conduct class on public holidays and Sundays in the name of completing the syllabus. If you are absent,you have to face huge consequences. Also, most of the Saturdays will be working days although they claim that only odd Saturdays of a month are working days.Treating students as Elementary School kids : Almost all students except few 1st year students are adults(age>=18). But the teachers treat students like 10 year old kids. For any small mistake you commit, your class advisor calls your parents and informs them. If you get a backlog in a subject, you have to bring your parents to meet the respective teacher.Poor Quality of Students : Some students are highly unmotivated. They are forced by their parents to study Engineering despite them having zero interest in it. They end up getting huge history of backlogs thus making them ineligible for Campus placements. They eventually end up without a job at the end of 4 years. Some students are Bullies. They shout at the top of their lungs. Every time they speak, they use the words which are tamil equivalent of madarc**d, behenc**d, chut**a, etc… People of different departments never forget to involve in fight whenever they get the chance. Also, it is easy for your valuable things like mobile, wallet, Record note, etc… to get stolen.No freedom to park vehicles outside the campus : The college authorities collect a huge parking fee from students for parking the vehicles inside the campus. In-order to avoid this, few students park the vehicles outside the campus in a nearby area. Once in August 2016, there was a protest because the management had punctured the wheels of few vehicles which were parked in front of a bakery adjacent to the campus.No freedom to go outside the campus between 8:30 am to 4:30 pm : If you want to take any print out or photocopy or if you want to eat in a hotel outside the campus, you have to either give your ID Card or provide an out pass. Once, I had to attend an interview, so I had to go outside the campus. The security didn’t let me out. Even I showed him the Interview Call Letter. Still he didn’t let me go out. I had to waste 30 minutes of my time in getting an out pass.Lack of Sports facilities : There was just one sports period in 1st year alone that too on a Saturday. Most of the time, some teacher will borrow that period. If you are a day scholar and interested in some sport, then you have to stay back and then practice it. For day scholar sportsmen coming far away it’s very difficult for them. By the time they reach home, they would have no time to study.Prolonged working hours : Day scholars are forced to stay till 5:30 pm in the name of ward counselling although the working hours get over by 4:30 pm . Most of the days, teachers conduct test during this time. They simply ask us to sign some form in the name of ward counselling attendance. This happens on Tuesday and Thursday. As a result, it takes upto 6:30 pm for the day scholars to reach home.Selling Student database : The college sells the student data to project centres and Coaching Centres. I was getting repeated Phone calls, SMSes and E-Mails from a Project Centre. That Project Centre has recruited 3 students from our college last year.Poor Wifi : The wifi speed is so slow that by the time it takes even a google homepage to load, you would have graduated.If you are a 12th Standard Student and if you are reading this, please don’t take admission in this college. Please do NOT use the counselling code 2727 during TNEA Counselling. My request to all those reading this: “Please share this answer so that no one opts for this college during admission.”UPDATE:-Replying to someone who asked “Why do you bother to apply there when you know it is bad?”. When I was about to join, I never knew about these things. I made a mistake before I took admission by not asking many people how the Institute is.UPDATE-2:-Replying to someone who says, “comparing a private college with an iit is crime, how can u do that? expecting a environment like iit in a pvt engg college is a foolish thing…”First, I definitely wouldn’t have compared had they not mentioned in my college Brochure that they have the best Graphical System Design Lab and CADD Lab in Asia-Pacific Region. Secondly, get your facts straight. Have you heard of BITS, Pilani and IIIT, Hyderabad? They are at par and even better than many new IITs.
