Valuing The Students’ Rating Of Teaching: Students’ And Teachers’ Perspectives
Keywords:
Student Ratings, Teachers’ Perspectives, Students’ Perspectives, TeachingAbstract
With the current synchronous, asynchronous, and hybrid modalities, higher educational institutions (HEIs) adopt the student ratings to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching. It is widely used; but, is considered a controversial tool used in teacher evaluation. Although teacher ratings aimed at evaluating teaching and hoped to aid the teacher in professional enhancement, they were thought to affect faculty and adjunct performance reviews, tenure and promotion, departmental and program retention rates, and university recruitment. The main concern of the research was to determine the perceptions of the faculty or teachers and the students on the student ratings of teaching and how the data gathered impacted on instruction and evaluation. It was a descriptive research that utilized a standardized instrument responded by ninety-eight (98) college and senior high school faculty members at a private Catholic university.
