Supplemental Methods of Evaluating Teaching Effectiveness
University policy requires some alternate form of soliciting student feedback for candidates for tenure or promotion. More generally, many Abington faculty have benefited from supplemental methods of student feedback. For supplemental evaluations to be considered in promotion and tenure decisions, they must solicit critical as well as favorable comments (e.g., if students are asked what they found most helpful in a course, they should also be asked what was least helpful), and they must be administered in a manner comparable to the SRTE.
