Abstract
This paper describes the effect of changing course content and teaching met hodology for an introductory course in Environmental Processes. Student eva luations were used both to monitor the effect of the changes, as well as to change the course structure and the didactics. The result of the change wa s a better average score at the examination, and higher student satisfactio n. The paper illustrates the usefulness of course evaluations in course dev elopment.
