An essential component of the commitment to teaching excellence is the regular teaching evaluations by students. Although teaching evaluations are just one component of teaching assessment, they provide valuable information to faculty members for the continuous improvement of their teaching. When reporting on teaching, faculty members shall provide information about their teaching during the evaluation period by means of student evaluations and, if desired by the member, additional information as described in Article (a) (Tenure and Promotion – Provisions for Full-time Faculty). The Parties agree that no single measure provides complete information about teaching quality and effectiveness. Therefore, when assessing teaching quality and effectiveness, Deans shall ensure that all evidence provided by the faculty member is evaluated in the full context of available information. d. Student course evaluations are not public documents and are the property of the instructor. However, that does not preclude the University from accumulating aggregated and anonymized data from online student course evaluations for reporting purposes to government. The results of student course evaluations shall be made available by members to their Deans during the Annual Review process and other processes as provided for in this Agreement as a source of information about teaching quality and effectiveness.
