Student evaluations of teaching are an inadequate assessment tool for evaluating faculty performance (2017, background): “…8 The use of student ratings of teaching (which are, in essence, student opinions of teaching capability) is the most common process employed at universities to evaluate faculty teaching quality/competence (see Cashin, 1999; Clayson, 2009; Davis, 2009; Seldin, 1999; Seldin, Miller, & Seldin, 2010).”
Natural Learning in Higher Education (2010, background): “For example, they are used by over 99% of business schools (Clayson 2009).”
An Evaluation of Course Evaluations (2014, methodology): “Background SET scores are the most common method to evaluate teaching (Cashin, 1999; Clayson, 2009; Davis, 2009; Seldin, 1999).”
On Students’ (Mis)judgments of Learning and Teaching Effectiveness (2020, background): “Hundreds of studies ave explored how this measure of learning relates to student valuations of teaching effectiveness, and numerous reviews nd meta-analyses have been published cumulating their results e.g., Clayson, 2009; Cohen, 1981; Feldman, 1976; Marsh, 007b; McCallum, 1984; Uttl et al., 2017).”
On the Validity of Student Evaluation of Teaching (2013, methodology): “For example, Clayson (2009) listed five alternatives for increasing the stringency of controls when mapping student learning: using class means (instead of individual means), using common tests in multiple section courses, conducting pretests and posttests, monitoring performance in future classes,…”
Student evaluations of teaching: combining the meta-analyses and demonstrating further evidence for effective use (2012, background): “Combining all the meta-analyses, the total number of studies was 233 and included 1330 courses/ sections (Clayson 2009, had 1115 sections). The mean number of studies per metaanalysis was 21.18 (SD = 12.01). When combining all of the studies included in the meta-analyses, the earliest publication wa”
Student evaluations of teaching: perceptions of faculty based on gender, position, and rank (2010, background): “It may be argued that few areas within academia have been researched and documented to the degree that student evaluations have been (Clayson 2009).”
Measuring teaching quality in higher education: assessing selection bias in course evaluations (2017, background): “However, there is as yet no consensus on this (Clayson 2009).”
Meta-analysis of faculty's teaching effectiveness: Student evaluation of teaching ratings and student learning are not related (2017, methodology): “Second, Clayson (2009) summarized SET/learning correlations from primary studies using both raw averages and averages weighted by the number of sections on which each correlation was based.”
