Learner’s Assessment of Teaching-Learning and Courseware in a Hybrid Environment (LATCH), previously called the Student Teacher Assessment Report (STAR), is a 33-item evaluation tool that allows students to provide feedback on their teachers' performance. This assessment captures students' learning experiences and offers valuable insights for teachers to refine their strategies and enhance the overall learning experience.
LATCH is mandatory for all Benildean students, whether at Benilde Manila or Benilde Antipolo. Your identity as a rater will remain confidential and not be shared with the faculty. Additionally, your evaluation will have no impact on your academic grades.
When do I rate my teachers?
LATCH is conducted during the 8th to 10th week of the term. The Office of Institutional Effectiveness and Research (OIER) sends reminders via Benilde Mail regarding LATCH schedules.
If you don’t submit your LATCH ratings on time, you won’t be able to pre-enroll and will have a pending clearance record in SIS. Clear your pending LATCH clearance before proceeding with enrollment.
