Transforming Teaching Evaluation at the Department Level: Celebrating Cohort 1 of DATs@ DU

Last October Provost Clark and Faculty Senate kicked off Next Steps in Advancing Equity in Faculty Workload and Rewards. One of the intersecting initiatives in this project centers on teaching excellence and the transformation of teaching evaluation, both at the institutional and department/program level. In Spring 2022, three inaugural Departmental Action Teams (DATs) began their work interrogating current practices and reimagining teaching evaluation processes in their areas. The goal of this project is to promote greater equity and transparency and avoid an over-reliance on Student Ratings of Instruction (SRIs).

The three inaugural DATs will share their proposals for evaluation revision, engage with participants about their experience, and share reflections on their evaluation reform.

Lunch will be served.

The DAT program is funded through the R1 Our Way Teaching and Faculty Satisfaction Initiatives. Interested in forming a DAT for Cohort 2? Learn more at this event.

This event is co-sponsored by the Offices of the Provost and Vice Provost for Faculty Affairs and the Office of Teaching and Learning.
