Abstract

In accordance with the changes brought about by the new educational framework, students’ evaluation of the teaching process has become an important measurement instrument of the quality of the instructional performance. This idea lies at the basis of the present pilot study, which aims at discovering the impact of students’ evaluation of their literature classes on the classroom environment as, in our opinion, such assessment may lead to the improvement of the teaching strategies used during literature courses and seminars.
