iSchool instructors ranked as excellent for Summer 2021

Nine iSchool instructors were named in the University's List of Teachers Ranked as Excellent for Summer 2021. The rankings are released every semester, and results are based on the Instructor and Course Evaluation System (ICES) questionnaire forms maintained by Measurement and Evaluation in the Center for Innovation in Teaching and Learning. Only those instructors who gave out ICES forms during the semester and who released their data for publication are included in the list.

Faculty and instructors appearing on the list include Barbara Alvarez, Anne Craig, Linda Diekman, Jeanne Holba-Puacz, Kristen Mattson, Melissa Salrin, Yoo-Seong Song, Kevin Trainor, and Melissa Wong.

Craig, Mattson, Song, and Wong received the highest ranking of "outstanding."
