N2  - There is growing pressure both within and outside higher education to recognize and reward faculty excellence in teaching, as well as in the areas of research and service." "In this book, John A. Centra provides faculty members, administrators, and faculty development specialists with the up-to-date approaches they need to evaluate and improve teaching." "Greatly expanding his earlier bestseller, Determining Faculty Effectiveness (Jossey-Bass, 1979), Centra underscores the importance of active methods of teaching and the need to evaluate those methods in less traditional ways. He discusses the value and proper use of self-reports and portfolios. And he examines better ways to involve colleagues and students in evaluating and improving teaching. He includes guidelines, time-tested principles, new research insights, and many suggestions that can be adapted by both beginning and experienced teachers, and by those involved in evaluating and enhancing their performance
