student evaluation

Grading the learner

Student evaluation is the assessment of a student's academic performance, or the assessment of a teacher's effectiveness by students.

The first sense appears in phrases like student evaluation forms for grading.

The second, more common in higher education, refers to end-of-term feedback: The professor's student evaluations were mostly positive.

Context usually clarifies which direction the evaluating goes.
