Student Evaluation of Teaching Policy--All faculty unit employees and administrators who teach shall be evaluated in two courses annually, using the IDEA Short Form or approved substitute(s). Faculty unit employees and administrators teaching one or two classes annually shall have all classes evaluated. The classes to be evaluated shall be jointly determined in consultation between the faculty unit employee and his/her department chair. In the event of disagreement, each party shall select 50% of the total courses to be evaluated. The department chairperson may approve evaluation of additional courses if requested by the instructor.
Parts I. Evaluation (Progress Ratings), II. Students' Self Ratings and III. Summary Profile of the IDEA REPORT, or the results from (an) approved substitute(s), for the two required courses shall be placed in the faculty unit employee's Personnel Action File. The results of any additional evaluations shall be given only to the instructor.
By November 1 of each academic year, the department chairs shall inform the Vice President for Academic Affairs or designee of the classes to be evaluated that year.
Departments are encouraged to develop and test alternative teaching assessment instruments, using the IDEA long or short form or other theoretically grounded standards for establishing reliability and validity. If specified in department RPT elaborations, and if explicitly approved by the URPTC, results from such instruments may be substituted for or supplement the IDEA short form placed in the employee's Personnel Action File.
The Faculty Affairs Committee will submit for inclusion in the Faculty Handbook a report advising faculty members and administrators of the best diagnostic practices for using the IDEA instrument. This report will be examined each year and revised when needed.
3/AS/89/FAC Approved May 29, 1989 and 9/AS/93/FAC approved June 8, 1993. Also refer to Article 15 of the Faculty Contract (pdf). And for Temporary Faculty, please refer to Temporary Lecturer Evaluation Policy (pdf). |
