“This questionnaire helps us evaluate our distance courses (online, videocassette and ITV)  in order to improve our programs and services. It is NOT AN EVALUATION OF THE INSTRUCTOR.  If you have comments in that regard, they should be directed to the division associate deans and/or through standard evaluation forms. Thank you so much for your participation in North Seattle Community College’s Distance Learning program."

For the multiple choice questions, the numbers correspond to: 
5 = strongly agree /4 = agree /3 = neutral /2 = disagree /1 = strongly disagree
