Policy: | Policy 4-4-4: Part Time Faculty Evaluation Guidelines | Date Adopted: | Nov 23, 2004 | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Department: | Instruction | Contact: | Academic Director | |
Statement: | Consistent with the ºÚÁÏÍø Part-time Faculty Information Guide, all part-time faculty members will be evaluated in the areas of course organization, classroom management, communication skills, facilitating learning, and technical skills. |
Role of Administrator
Evaluations will be conducted by the dean of instruction or designee, and should include
classroom observation, written evaluation based upon previously determined criteria,
discussion with the faculty member, and response and signature of the faculty member
verifying knowledge of the evaluations contents. The signature does not confer a faculty
members agreement with its contents.
Role of Students
Students in each class taught by part-time faculty members will have the opportunity
to complete evaluation forms.
Timeline
The first evaluation for new part time faculty will take place on or about the middle
of the semester. Evaluations for continuing part time faculty will be conducted between
the 4th and 12th week of the semester. Whether it is administrative evaluation or
peer observation, both the evaluator/observer and the faculty member will set the
date(s) of the observation and any follow-up meetings. The dean of instruction or
designee reserves the right to conduct more than one administrative evaluation per
academic year. 20% of all part-time faculty members will be evaluated each academic
year by the dean of instruction or designee.
Criteria
Each division should determine specific criteria to be met by part-time faculty. Establishment
of these criteria should include input from full and part-time faculty and the Academic
Director. These criteria will be provided by the Academic Director to each new part-time
faculty hired.
