I rate very satisfactory, satisfactory, fair and unsatisfactory for the following: Overall job performance Neatness of work Ability to accept supervision Leadership ability Relationship with co-workers Reliability Attendance Initiative Then I also have a section for my comments. Students must sign the form and there is a place for their comments along with the following statement: 'My signature above indicates only that I have reviewed and discussed this evaluation with my supervisor and I am aware of my work performance. It does not necessarily signify that I agree.' I do evaluations at the end of the first semester and then annually thereafter.

They have 8 staff there, each of whom supervises students when the staff member is scheduled to work the front desk. That makes the form a little more complicated than may be necessary for you. The following does not show the lines used on the form, but I think it includes all the information you asked about. I hope it is helpful. Please see my related question after the end of the form. STUDENT'S NAME: SEMESTER: RATINGS: 4 = Outstanding 3 = Good 2 = Satisfactory 1 = Unsatisfactory N/A = Not Applicable PLEASE FILL IN YOUR RATINGS IN THE APPROPRIATE BOX SUPERVISORS (8 of them) RATINGS 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1. JOB KNOWLEDGE Possesses skills & abilities required Knows duties/responsibilities of his or her position Knows relationship of his or her job to others in unit 2. ABILITY TO LEARN Learns quickly Remembers what she or he is taught 3. RELIABILITY Job completion Ability to get things done 4. DEPENDABILITY Punctuality and reliability in attendance 5. WORKING WITH OTHERS Cooperates with supervisor Cooperates with co-worker Cooperates with person outside the unit Creates favorable impression to the public 6.

QUANTITY OF WORK Volume of work done in specified time Average Ratings: Supervisor's Signature: Date: Student's Signature: Date: I have a related question for SerialsT folks: Do any of you have knowledge of a listserv for supervisors of student assistants? I have been trying to locate one and have contacted a list serv of administrators of student employment. So far I have received a referral to www.liszt.com which didn't turn up any lists for student supervisors. Any ideas? Thanks much!

We have had problems with the categories we established earlier, but can't seem to come up with a more efficient and accurate categories to compare with. I wondered if anyone out there has developed a workable evaluation sheet and would be willing to share it? thanks, Carrie Ferm Augustana College Library Periodical Section Rock Island, Il 61201 Phone: (309)794-7316 Fax: (309) 794-7230 e-mail: alicf@loki.augustana.edu
