本文探讨了教师教学质量的学生评估和评估期间之间的关系。它是基于在以色列最大的公立大学进行的分析。我们的目的是探讨是否投资,以提高教学质量的教师是成本效益。本研究的结果证实,在四个时间点进行的教学评估调查中,所有教师对评估项目的评分都有所提高。然而,调查结果也表明,教学的改善与教师参加教学工作坊或学院为提高教学质量而采取的任何其他措施无关。在整个教练的年龄被发现是一个个人属性变量的最重要的。资历是另一个重要的职业属性变量。
This paper examines the relationship between quality of instruction of faculty members as assessed by students and the assessment periods involved. It is based on analysis carried out in Israel's largest public college. Our aim was to explore whether investments to improve the quality of instruction of faculty members are cost beneficial. The findings of this study confirm an improvement in all faculty members' ratings on assessment items as measured in instruction assessment surveys conducted at four points in time. Yet, the findings also indicate that improvements in teaching were not related to instructors' participation in teaching workshops or to any other steps taken by the college to improve quality of teaching. On the whole instructor's age was found to be an individual attribute variable of paramount importance. Seniority turned out to be another important professional attribute variable.
