Teaching Evaluation Resources
DeLTA promotes the use of multiple perspectives in teaching evaluation, because evaluating a complex task like teaching requires multiple perspectives. Teaching evaluation should be informed by the voices of students, trained peers, and the instructor. The University of Georgia Appointment, Promotion, and Tenure Guidelines have been revised to reflect this.
