the registrar has this letter grade only this term

The registrar's own records: 128 grades over 4 terms, Fall 2021 to Fall 2025. Every instructor is pooled here.

What is inside that record

1 of those terms is a summer session, and summer sessions are counted here.

The table below splits them, and term averages across those 4 terms ran 3.91 to 3.98.

Historical grades for HANSEN, MARK P, across recorded terms. The course summary above includes all professors.

  • A+ 67 · 60.4%
  • A 31 · 27.9%
  • A- 7 · 6.3%
  • B+ 3 · 2.7%
  • B 3 · 2.7%

Percentages are of the 111 letter grades. Grey bars are non-letter outcomes.

How the non-letter outcomes are counted

They are excluded from the GPA entirely rather than scored, because counting a P as a 4.0 would be a fabrication.

Instructor Predicted GPA Raw n Terms A range Workload Fall 2026
HANSEN, MARK P reviews ↗ 3.94 3.94 111 3 95% - Waitlist, 0 of 5 places taken
DILLMAN, LISA MARIE reviews ↗ 3.95 3.96 17 · 1 100% - not teaching it
Why Predicted is not the Raw average

“Predicted” is shrunk toward the course average, which is itself shrunk toward the department, so an instructor with a handful of students sits near the course mean rather than topping the list.

Grade records describe outcomes. For what a course is like to take, read student reviews written on dibs below or follow the separate external review link.

Workload and assignments

Work types reported in BruinWalk reviews of this course, across recorded instructors and terms. They may differ from this term's syllabus.

dibs has not read this course’s reviews, so it cannot say what kind of work it sets. That is dibs not having looked. It is not a course without papers or exams, and the reviews linked below are the answer until dibs catches up.

What comes first

The chain dibs can see is 1 course long before EDUC 166. dibs has read a class page for every course in it.

Counted in courses rather than quarters: dibs does not know which of them a department lets you take together.

In Falls

Has not run in Fall in the 3 Falls dibs holds records for, back to Spring 2023. That is 3 years of grade records rather than the course catalog, so it says what has happened and not what the department will do next.

From the terms dibs holds, which start in Fall 2021 and exclude summer. A department can run a course in a quarter it never has before.

From the registrar's catalog

Seminar, four hours. Requisite: course 35. Introduction to various theories concerning evaluation of educational and social programs. Examination of how these theories differ with respect to goals, priorities, and associated procedures. Development of evaluation plan for specific program. In developing this plan, students consider core features of program, engage program stakeholders to understand needs and priorities, and connect their proposed approach to specific evaluation theories. Through parallel development of multiple plans to evaluate single program, students observe extent and manner in which differences in theory are manifested in evaluation design. Letter grading.

Sections in Fall 2026

Seat counts as of . Seat readings are snapshots, not live availability. Their timestamps show when dibs last checked.

Final enrollment, averaged across each term's sections: between 32 and 41 a term over 3 terms, summer excluded, most recently 38 in Winter 2025. That is the shape across years, not this term, which is above.

Seats over time in Fall 2026

How each lecture has filled since dibs first saw it.

A dot is a reading where something moved: the seat count, the status, or the waitlist.

What a flat run means, and where a line starts

Flat between dots means it did not drift, it held and then jumped, and a line starts when dibs first saw that lecture rather than reaching back before it existed. A lecture that has never moved draws a flat line across the whole window, and one with two or three readings draws a line joining them, which is too few to read a trend from.

Sem 1 · Hansen, M.P. · 40 of 40 enrolled

Same seat count, but the status moved and came back, the waitlist went 3 of 5 to 0 of 5, and the seat count moved and came back over about 1 month

dibs read 168 of the 555 hours its hourly record covers, 30%, and did not look in 387. dibs had no hourly record before 8 Sep, which is the other 507 of 1062 plotted.40 of 40 enrolled at the newest reading, 6 minutes ago, and no seats left. Seats from 18 Aug 19:40 to 2 Oct 00:52, 40 to 40. dibs read 168 of the 555 hours its hourly record here covers, 30%. An hour marked as read confirms a check, not continuous monitoring. That check recorded no change; changes between checks may be missed. For 387 hours dibs was keeping a record and did not reach this section. Nothing before 8 September at 22:00, where this section's record starts, has a read either way, which is 507 hours of this window. Where the drawing is faint or broken, that never means the readings are doubtful. It means the stretch between them is unaccounted for.
How readings and alerts work

A reading and an hourly record are different things, and most charts here hold more of the second missing than present. dibs has taken readings of a section since long before it began keeping an hour-by-hour log of when it looked, so the empty stretches are dibs saying it was not keeping that log yet, not that it looked and found nothing. That is the age of the record and not a fault.

Seat counts show the last successful read, not live availability. Refreshes can be delayed by request limits or upstream interruptions. Watched sections receive priority, but an hourly update for every section is not guaranteed.

The registrar can change a seat count between our checks. Alerts depend on dibs detecting an opening and completing delivery; a quiet watch does not prove that no seat opened. Check the registrar before enrolling.
