Faculty Evaluation Process. The Faculty Evaluation shall include the Faculty member’s: (a) self-evaluation; (b) classroom observation(s); (c) student evaluations of instruction; and, (d) Xxxx’x evaluation and narrative.
Faculty Evaluation Process. Faculty evaluation is a holistic process Academic faculty evaluations involve a balance between the faculty member’s annual plan, the self-evaluation of the annual plan, classroom observations, student evaluations and the supervisor’s evaluation of the faculty member’s performance. Administrative faculty evaluations involve a balance between goal-setting, fulfillment of position responsibilities, and measurable achievements. Both processes consist of a written assessment and an assignment of an overall rating. Each faculty member and HR will receive copies of the evaluator’s written evaluation when the process is complete.
Faculty Evaluation Process. The Faculty Evaluation Process shall be on a three-year cycle, with the supervising administrator evaluating a course/ lab of the faculty member during the third year of the cycle. (Note: Faculty shall be divided into three groups using last names that begin with A-I, J-R, and S-Z). A collegial conference (which may either be verbal or written) shall occur during the first two years of the faculty evaluation process. The collegial conference shall include:
Faculty Evaluation Process. Because the new faculty member in the NEFDP will be on a tenure track during this funding period, the goal of the program is to aid in their retention by the Department of Nuclear Engineering. Our success in retaining our junior faculty depends greatly on how they perform in the evaluation process at the University of Tennessee. Junior faculty will be formally evaluated on an annual basis by the program administrator, Xx. Xxx Xxxxx. The evaluation includes a rubric designed to both rate and track the performance of the junior faculty member through the probationary period before tenure review. The goal of this evaluation is to provide feedback to junior faculty on their progress in meeting the high expectations for tenure in the College of Engineering. These expectations include consistent and demonstrated success in: teaching, measured by student evaluations and peer review; research and scholarship, measured by publications in highly respected peer reviewed journals, the ability of the faculty member to bring in external funded research projects; research administration, measured by the success in funding, mentoring, and graduating Masters and Ph.D. students; and service to the department, the university, the scientific community, and professional societies. Furthermore, awards in teaching, research, and service are also considered. The goal of the NEFDP is to ensure that high-quality, nuclear engineering faculty members are developed in such a way that they will be retained in the tenure process. As such, the evaluation criteria used in the NEFDP are the same as they are for the university’s promotion and tenure process. The entire text of the University of Tennessee’s “Guidelines for the Tenure and Promotion Review Process” is too long to include in this proposal, but for promotion of tenure-track faculty, the following areas are listed as “Essential” requirements: Teaching – Student evaluations, Peer Teaching Evaluation, Graduate student advising, consistent production of MS and PhD degrees. Research – Financial support of graduate students from external funds, Evidence of growing and vibrant externally funded research program. Scholarship – Archival journal publications, Oral or Poster Presentations at Conferences, and Citations. Service – Peer review of papers or proposals, professional societies, conference committees. In addition, there are several areas listed as Desirable or Beneficial for promotion. Some of those areas are: - Evidence of Teachi...
