Student evaluations of teaching: perceptions of faculty based on gender, position, and rank (2010, methodology): “Zabaleta (2007), for example, found that years of teaching experience or whether the instructor is a professional or a graduate teaching assistant is not associated with SETs.”
The Impact of Physical Classroom Environment on Student Satisfaction and Student Evaluation of Teaching in the University Environment (2010, background): “Prior research has shown significant relationships between student evaluation of teaching and factors such as instruction quality, course difficulty, and grades (Zabaleta 2007).”
Measuring teaching quality in higher education: assessing selection bias in course evaluations (2017, background): “2 Other approaches such as peer evaluation and teacher certification also occur, but these are much less common and generally given little weight in assessments of teaching quality, unlike SETs which are both widely used and highly weighted (Becker and Watts 1999; Becker et al. 2011; Zabaleta 2007).”
