Faculty and Student Perspectives on the Dartmouth Course Assessment

11/7/2024
12 pm – 1 pm
DCAL Teaching Center (Baker 102)
Intended Audience(s): Faculty, Postdoc, Students-Graduate

Registration required.

Like many institutions, Dartmouth established its current course assessment process more than two decades ago, and has not formally evaluated the instrument or process for effectiveness since that time. At the request of the Dean of Faculty to examine teaching evaluation practices broadly, DCAL and LDI are seeking to understand the strengths and limitations of Dartmouth’s course assessment model. At this session, we will explore what faculty find most valuable and most challenging in the current course assessment and review results from the recent Course Assessment Student Survey. This input from faculty and students will inform an intended revision of the course assessment process that we hope will better serve faculty, students, and the institution. This confidential discussion will be facilitated by Scott Pauls and is open to all faculty whose teaching reviews are part of contract renewal, reappointment, and/or tenure and promotion processes. Chairs, deans, and other administrators are encouraged to engage in other forums–invitations coming soon.
