For example, when I was teaching history to 13 year-old students, I told the students that I expected them to take control of their education, and this included having them evaluate my performance at periodic intervals.
例如,当我向13岁学生讲授历史时,我告诉学生我希望他们能控制他们的教育,这包括让他们定期评估我的表现。
By allowing my students to help fashion their own educational experience, they became more invested in their work and in keeping the classroom as a place for education rather than discipline.

To my surprise I discovered that my students felt that I spoke too quickly, and as a result, that they had difficulty grasping some speaking quickly.
令我惊讶的是,我发现我的学生感到我说得太快了,结果是他们很难掌握一些很快的讲话。
However, after receiving this advice from my students, I was able to slow down my speech, and teach more effectively.

However, student evaluations can clue the school administration into the strengths and weaknesses of teachers.

I have had several teachers who rest on their laurels, re-hashing old lectures rather than updating their knowledge and disseminating it effectively.
我有几个教师吃老本,再散列老讲座而不是更新他们的知识和传播有效。
In our evaluations, my classmates and I informed the administration about the ineffective instruction of one teacher.
在我们的评价中,我的同学和我通知了一位老师对一个老师的无效指示。
After learning of his negative evaluations, this teacher, to his credit, changed his poor teaching and worked to improve.

But for these evaluations, this teacher may have continued to slack in his teaching, depriving students of valuable education.
但对于这些评价,这位教师在教学中可能会继续懈怠,剥夺学生的宝贵教育。
In conclusion, student evaluations for teachers allow students to become more invested in their education, help teachers improve their teaching skills, and provide much needed oversight over teachers.
