In order to ensure that Summary Evaluation Form criteria are weighted in a consistent, transparent, and fair manner in computing the overall evaluation rating, each department must post the percentage weightings for each criteria clearly on the college website designed for this purpose. Weighting information must be posted to allow sufficient time for faculty to be aware of this information before turning in their evaluation materials. The percentages for each department should be determined through departmental shared governance which includes full-time and adjunct departmental faculty, the Department Chair, and the Dean. These percentages must satisfy the following:

    • Instructional Performance – This criterion must be weighted the same for both full-time and adjunct faculty. It should be no less than 40% of the total.
    • Student Feedback and Faculty Reflection – This criterion must be weighted the same for both full-time and adjunct faculty. It can be between 20%-30% of the total.
    • Professional Service (Required for full-time only) – This should be at least 15% of the total.
    • Both Administrative Performance and Professional Development and Growth must each count for at least 5% of the total.

A possible weighting is as follows:

Weightings:

Full-Time Adjunct
Teaching and Student Learning:
Instructional Performance (Required: At least 40%) 50% 50%
Student Feedback and Faculty Reflection (Required: Between 20% and 30%) 25% 25%
Professional Responsibilities:
Administrative Performance 5% 15%
Professional Development and Growth (Required: At least 5%) 5% 10%
Professional Service (Required for full-time only, Required: At least 15%) 15%
