Teaching Observation Assignments

The following procedure describes the Departmental approach to teaching observations, designed to integrate obervations, student evaluations, and general curricular guidance, and to slightly increase the frequency of observations. Each member of the adjunct faculty, and all untenured members of the regular faculty, is assigned to a member of the full time faculty. The full time member of the faculty has the following responsibilities for his or her roster of adjuncts:

Conduct or arrange for observations each semester as necessary. Faculty members should expect to conduct at least one observation per semester, either within his or her own roster, or perhaps outside of his or her roster at the request of another member of the faculty. While observations are not required of members of the adjunct faculty after ten semesters of service, they can be conducted at the request of either the chair or the adjunct. I recommend that, for long-term members of the adjunct faculty, that observations be scheduled at least once every two years.
Review online instruction, but conduct an online teaching observation only if the faculty member consents to use of the new format.
Review teaching evaluations by students, including written comments, and review grade distributions and other statistical reports issued by the registrar such as withdrawal rates from class sections.
Review course syllabi. These chould be filed every semester with Marjorie Adams and with the regular faculty member to which the adjunct faculty member is associated.
Confer with the member of the adjunct faculty periodically, to review all of these perspectives on teaching, and to assist with any other concerns that the member of the adjunct faculty may have, including office arrangements.

I intend to periodically rotate these assignments.
