Presentation evaluation questions and criteria
A good presentation evaluation form usually includes an overall rating, criteria for content, structure, and presenter delivery, plus optional open-ended fields for strengths and areas for improvement.
Below, you’ll find practical examples based on proven evaluation practices. Copy and paste them into your form, or adjust them to match your evaluation process.
Introduction questions
Start with a short note on what the evaluator should do and how long the form will take. It is also helpful to explain the purpose of the form and how the data will be used or stored.
For example:
Please take a few minutes to evaluate the presentation. Your assessment will help identify the presenter’s strengths and areas for improvement. The form takes about 3 minutes to complete. Responses will be stored securely and used only for evaluation and improvement purposes.
You can also add a few optional fields to identify the presentation and evaluation context:
