Monitoring the Learning Environment: How Your Feedback is Used

At the Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine, your feedback is essential for maintaining a positive and professional learning environment. Here’s what happens when you submit feedback about mistreatment or unprofessional behavior: 

Submitting Feedback 

• Students can submit feedback in several ways:  
  • Through the ATM reporting process. 
  • Through the Title IX process. 
  • Via the End of Experience and individual educator evaluations. 
  • At Learning Environment Sessions in the third-year clerkships. 
• Any ATM or Title IX reports received through course evaluations will be routed through the appropriate channels. 

Initial Review 

• The Medical Education Office (MEO) reviews all submitted feedback. 
• Comments are always de-identified to protect your privacy. 
• If your feedback includes low ratings or describes mistreatment, it is flagged for further review. 

Action and Follow-Up 

• Department chairs and the Dean review trends and address them during annual reviews. 
• Individual faculty records may be reviewed for promotions. 

Continuous Improvement 

• The school compiles quarterly and annual reports to identify trends and improve the learning environment. 
• Your feedback helps shape policies and ensures accountability at all levels. 

Why Your Feedback Matters 

By sharing your experiences, you help the school maintain a respectful, supportive, and professional environment for all students. Every report is taken seriously and contributes to positive change.
