Spring 2026 TAPs Dates
Teaching Analysis Polls (TAPs), the CFC’s mid-semester assessment program, will run from Monday, February 16 – Friday, March 6 during the 2026 Spring semester.
Why sign up for a TAP?
Get feedback from your students when it matters most: while you are actually teaching your class.
- Improve student learning: Make small teaching changes now and see the benefits for your current class.
- Promote inclusive teaching: Show students you value their input by collecting feedback and making meaningful changes.
- Document your teaching: Highlight your responsiveness to student needs in your teaching materials.
This is what past participants have to say:
The TAP process was an easy and helpful one to improve my student engagement and outcomes. I recommend participating for all faculty looking to improve their courses via student feedback.
As a professor, the only feedback I tend to get is from student evaluation data at the conclusion of the semester. I appreciate the CFC for providing this opportunity to gather feedback from students mid-semester, as it was valuable formative feedback. Meeting with the CFC staff member to discuss the feedback and actionable steps I could take for the rest of the semester and beyond was the personalized professional development I needed to reflect on my teaching, as well as my students’ learning.
- TAPs are available to anyone who teaches at WCU and are completely confidential.
- We are offering in-person options at both the main campus and Biltmore Park, as well as online options for evening or remote classes.
Please reach out to Anabel Livengood at llivengood@wcu.edu if you have any questions.
