Materials -> Tools for Evaluation -> Protocols
The following suites of materials are designed to help link the data collected front the three voices: peer, student, and self to the frameworks and rubrics of quality teaching evaluation.
KU
The University Kansas has the following guides for departments’ evaluation of teaching as part of the
benchmarks project:
- Department Guide for Evaluating Teaching for Annual Review (.docx) (download). Guidance for departments and schools on how the Benchmarks framework and tools could be adapted to evaluate teaching for annual review. Can guide what information department asks for and how they review and evaluate it. Departments should adapt as needed.
- Benchmarks Evaluation Form (.docx) (download). A fillable form for evaluators to use to provide feedback to instructors on each of the seven dimensions of teaching in the Benchmarks framework.
CU
The University of Colorado’s Teaching Quality Framework Initiative (TQF) has developed a toolkit of resources for departmental change efforts related to transforming teaching evaluation, and particularly includes protocols for mapping data to the rubrics established. This Toolkit is meant to provide institutions and departments with tools and guidance to help them engage in a process of teaching evaluation transformation without the direct support of a group like the TQF.
UMass
The University of Massachusetts Amherst's Guide for Implementing Holistic Teaching Evaluation in UMass Departments describes related evaluation methods and teaching dimensions, and offers a process for transitioning to a holistic approach to teaching evaluation. It also includes examples of criteria for proficiency in each dimension and provides templates for organizing evidence and discussions. Found within UMass's Implementation Guide are Teaching Analysis Templates, Stepwise Processes for Implementing Change, Schedules for Holistic Evaluation, and much more.
