ASSESSMENT & EVALUATION OF TENURED FACULTY. The performance of tenured Faculty Members is formally evaluated every three-years. The following pages describe the evaluation system for tenured Faculty. PURPOSE Evaluation of the Faculty’s performance provides both Faculty and Administrators with information they need to maintain the quality of the College’s educational process. Evaluation also provides Faculty with information that can be used in maintaining or improving the level of their teaching. This process is, therefore, intended to be both developmental and evaluative. Forms used to facilitate this process are found in Appendix A. GENERAL FEATURES OF THE SYSTEM Formal evaluation of tenured Faculty at the College differs each year in a cycle of three-years. In the first year of the cycle, the Faculty Member and evaluator plan the evaluation. In the second year, they conduct a formal evaluation. And in the third year, they meet to update the formal evaluation. The cycle then repeats. When this evaluation cycle is in operation, an Associate Xxxx or other evaluator in a given year will conduct planning meetings with one-third of his or her Faculty, formal evaluation conferences with one-third, and update conferences with one-third. Evaluators should notify Faculty Members at least ten working days before any of the meetings in the evaluation process. When a formal evaluation is not normally scheduled, a Faculty Member or the evaluator may request a formal evaluation. Procedures for accomplishing the evaluation process are explained in the following sections.
