Student evaluation of teaching has been widely implemented in higher education institutions as a form of feedback for faculty and course effectiveness despite hot debates concerning its validity and reliability. The aim of this study was in general to unveil the needs for the improvement of the implementation of student evaluation of teaching particularly in the case of a higher education institution in Turkey. To achieve this end, a sample of 121 college students was surveyed to gather their perception regarding student evaluation of teaching. Results offered implications for the improvement of validity of the student evaluation of teaching in the electronic environment and suggestions for the increase in the number of students participating in student evaluation of teaching.

We used thematic conte...
