URGENT: University of Modena e Reggio Emilia Students Face Exam Block Over Teaching Evaluations
Modena, Italy – November 21, 2025 – Students at the University of Modena e Reggio Emilia (UNIMORE) are being alerted to a critical deadline: complete mandatory teaching evaluations by February 28, 2026, or risk being barred from registering for first-semester exam sessions. This breaking news impacts all students and requires immediate attention. This isn’t just a formality; it’s a direct gatekeeper to your academic progress.
What You Need to Know About the UNIMORE Evaluation Process
Starting Monday, November 24, 2025, an evaluation questionnaire will be available on the UNIMORE’s esse3 platform. The process is straightforward: log in, navigate to the “questionnaires” section, and then select “teaching activity evaluation questionnaires.” Students should choose either the “attending” or “non-attending” button based on their course enrollment method. If a course isn’t immediately visible, utilize the “Search for the teaching activity among those offered by your course of study” function.
The university emphasizes that these questionnaires are anonymous and designed to be quick and easy to complete. They’re looking for honest feedback – both the strengths and areas for improvement within the department’s teaching activities. Your voice truly matters here.
Why Student Feedback is Crucial – And What Happens If You Don’t Participate
UNIMORE isn’t just going through the motions with these evaluations. The university explicitly states that understanding the student perspective is “essential to knowing how to improve teaching activities and offer a more adequate service.” But there’s a significant consequence for inaction. Once the February 28th deadline passes, the questionnaires will be locked, and students who haven’t completed them will be unable to register for their first-semester exams.
This policy isn’t unique to UNIMORE. Across the globe, universities are increasingly recognizing the power of student feedback. Historically, course evaluations were often seen as a box-ticking exercise. However, modern pedagogical research demonstrates a strong correlation between actively soliciting and responding to student input and improved teaching quality, increased student engagement, and better learning outcomes. Think of it as a direct line to shaping your own educational experience.
Beyond UNIMORE: Evaluating Courses in Other Departments
For students planning to take free-choice exams in departments outside of their primary faculty, there’s an additional layer to consider. Each department sets its own evaluation deadlines. It’s your responsibility to check those dates and ensure you’ve submitted your feedback within the specified timeframe. Don’t let a missed deadline in another department derail your academic plans!
The rise of student evaluation systems reflects a broader trend in higher education towards student-centered learning. Universities are moving away from a purely lecture-based model and embracing more interactive and responsive teaching methods. This shift is driven, in part, by the demand for greater accountability and transparency in education.
