Well, this is just my own opinion, and I know some may have a different one, but then I feel it would be a good thing to have something like this going... Yeah, that's just my own opinion. I feel it would be a good thing to allow students to evaluate their teachers at the end of a section, term, or anytime. These students are the ones who know their teachers better, and since what they're evaluating them on is still academic-related and they're the ones learning directly from them, why not...?
Some teachers are good, some aren't, and some are very good at teaching and know their subjects so well, while some do not, some are patient, while some are not, some are very quick to get angry, while some are not, and some know how to balance teaching with encouragement and all, some do not... Some don't even know how to treat their students with equal love without making some feel unloved and all. So, giving these students an opportunity to evaluate and express themselves is good, at least to me.
Though I won't deny that I don't know the concerns that may surround this idea, students will always be students. I was once a student too, and we can all attest to how honest and dishonest some students can be. Not every student will give a deserving teacher the rating and evaluation that teacher deserves. Some would think of a time when a teacher had disciplined him/her and use it to evaluate the teacher without thinking of why the teacher had to punish them and what they did to get the punishment given to them, and it won't be so good to allow personal feelings to determine a teacher's performance.
So, if this would be done, then I feel it should be properly done. First off, we should encourage these students to be honest with their evaluations/feedback, and this feedback should only be about their teachers' methods of teaching, how they communicate, what they notice, the improvement they would love, and such. While also making sure that their feedback is kept anonymous, this is just to prevent them from being scared to express themselves. A teacher does not really need to know who wrote what.
And at the end of the day, the purpose should obviously not be to embarrass the teacher but to make learning/teaching easier for everyone...
