<h2>Hey there!</h2> | ||
<p>Welcome to the new Penn Course Review!</p> | ||
<p> | ||
The student-run Penn Course Review has served as a valuable | ||
guide for course selection since the 1960s. In 2014, Penn Course | ||
Review was completely redesigned to simplify the search | ||
experience. In 2018, we updated the site again to continue | ||
providing you with the best insights on courses. In 2021, we | ||
migrated the site over to a shared backend with{" "} | ||

Penn Course Alert | ||

and{" "} | ||
<a | ||
target="_blank" | ||
rel="noopener noreferrer" | ||
href="https://penncourseplan.com/" | ||
> | ||
Penn Course Plan | ||
</a> | ||
, allowing us to serve additional metrics about course | ||
registration difficulty (based on Penn Course Alert usage data | ||
and course status updates). We hope to continue updating and | ||
improving Penn Course Review in the years to come! | ||
</p> | ||

<h2>About</h2> | ||
<p> | ||
Penn Course Review is a student-run service that provides | ||
numerical ratings and metrics for undergraduate courses and | ||
professors at the University of Pennsylvania. PCR has a long | ||
history of being a valuable and influential guide for course | ||
selection. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
PCR is developed and managed by{" "} | ||
<a | ||
target="_blank" | ||
rel="noopener noreferrer" | ||
href="https://pennlabs.org/" | ||
> | ||
Penn Labs | ||
</a> | ||
, a student developer organization on Penn's campus. | ||
</p> | ||
|
||
<p> | ||
Penn Course Review compiles its information from online course | ||
evaluations conducted at the end of each semester by the | ||
Provost's office in conjunction with ISC. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
Your evaluations and comments feed the Review, so the more | ||
information you provide about your courses and professors, the | ||
more comprehensive Penn Course Review will be. | ||
</p> | ||
|

<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2> | ||
<div> | ||
<p className="question">How do I use the website?</p> | ||
<p className="answer"> | ||
Each professor, course, and department has its own page. | ||
Summary ratings for the recent semester and for all | ||
semesters are provided at the left of each page, with more | ||
detailed rating information provided on the right. You can | ||
choose to view or hide each course rating criteria by | ||
clicking the plus icon on the top of the table. You can also | ||
toggle the view mode of ratings between aggregate and most | ||
recent on the right side of the page. You can hover over the | ||
tags on the left side of the page or the stars on the right | ||
side of the page in order to learn more about courses | ||
offered in the upcoming semester. | ||
</p> | ||
</div> | ||
|
||
<div> | ||
<p className="question">What's new?</p> | ||
<p className="answer"> | ||
The site includes new features intended to make PCR's | ||
content more intuitive and accessible. The new search | ||
function allows students to search by course name, number, | ||
or professor. In addition to the traditional ratings, the | ||
site now offers ratings that average the evaluations from | ||
every semester the course or professor has been reviewed. | ||
Students can choose which information is relevant to them by | ||
selecting which rating criteria appear on the page. As of | ||
fall 2021, PCR now also displays additional metrics to give | ||
students a sense of registration difficulty. See the section | ||
about "Registration Metrics" below for more | ||
information. | ||
</p> | ||
</div> | ||
|
||
<div> | ||
<p className="question">How are courses rated?</p> | ||
<p className="answer"> | ||
At the end of each semester, the Provost's office, in | ||
conjunction with ISC, administers Penn's course | ||
evaluation form, which consists of eleven questions aimed at | ||
assessing the quality of the course and instructor. Each | ||
evaluation question is answered on a scale of Poor to | ||
Excellent. The ratings are translated numerically so that a | ||
rating of 0.00 corresponds a student evaluation of | ||
"Poor," 1.00 corresponds to an evaluation of | ||
"Fair," 2.00 to "Good," 3.00 to | ||
"Very Good," and 4.00 to "Excellent." | ||
</p> | ||
</div> | ||
|
||
<div> | ||
<p className="question">How often is data updated?</p> | ||
<p className="answer"> | ||
Information pertaining to which sections are taught in the | ||
upcoming semester is updated every 24 hours. | ||
</p> | ||
</div> | ||
|
||
<div> | ||
<p className="question">What do the colors mean?</p> | ||
<div className="answer"> | ||
Here's a guide to the color coded ratings. | ||
<br /> | ||
<br /> | ||
<ScoreBox rating={Rating.Bad}>0-2</ScoreBox> | ||
<ScoreBox rating={Rating.Good}>2-3</ScoreBox> | ||
<ScoreBox rating={Rating.Okay}>3-4</ScoreBox> | ||

<p className="question"> | ||
What are "Registration Metrics"? | ||
</p> | ||
<p className="answer"> | ||
As of fall 2021, PCR now also displays additional metrics to | ||
give students a sense of registration difficulty (such as | ||
avg. number of course openings, avg. final enrollment, avg. | ||
percentage of the semester open, percentage of sections | ||
filled in advance registration, and plots of estimated | ||
registration difficulty / percent of historical sections | ||
open over time). Generally, these metrics can give you a | ||
sense of how difficult it will be to register for a course | ||
(which is important for planning out your course | ||
registration). You can view these metrics by clicking the | ||
"Registration Metrics" tab in the left window on | ||
an instructor, department, or course page. For more | ||
information about any specific metric, hover over the | ||
question mark icon next to its name (or for plots, see the | ||
description below the title). | ||
