Dr. Arreola currently serves as director of assessment and professor of pharmaceutical sciences in the College of Pharmacy at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center.
Dr. Arreola has worked and published in the field of faculty evaluation and development for 36 years and has served as a consultant nationally and internationally to more than 250 colleges and universities in designing and operating faculty evaluation and development programs. He has also served as a consultant to the U.S. Department of labor and the Florida House of Representatives on designing and evaluating professional and occupational licensing examination procedures.

In 2004 Dr. Arreola was presented with the McKeachie Career Achievement Award by the Special Interest group of faculty teaching Evaluation, and Development of the American Educational Research Association for his contributions to the field of assessing and developing faculty performance. In 2005 the American Educational Research Association presented him with the prestigious Interpretive Scholarship Award in recognition for his work in developing the meta-profession model of the professoriate, which underpins the processes described in this volume.
Raoul Arreola is married to Dr. Mona J. Arreola, associate director of the cancer center of St. Jude Children’s Research hospital. They have four grown children and nine grandchildren (so far).

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This highly successful handbook provides practical, proven models for developing and using a comprehensive faculty evaluation system. Based on 36 years of research and experience building and operating large-scale faculty evaluation systems, as well as consulting experience to thousands of administrators and faculty from hundreds of colleges and universities of all types, this new edition includes more detailed information about the process of building and operating a comprehensive faculty evaluation system and a new model for conceptualizing the full complexity of faculty performance itself. The heart of the book remains the same reliable eight-step process that has worked so well for so many institutions. Each step, including the definitions of the various roles to be evaluated, has been expanded and enhanced based on the experiences of many institutions that have followed the procedure outlined in this book.

This third edition also includes a new introductory section; new research in the field; updated forms and procedures; a new, detailed case study of an institution that developed a web-enabled, computer-supported system based on the eight-step process; and a new body of work that defines the professoriate as a meta-profession, with a rubric for defining more than 20 faculty skill sets.

Contents include:

• Preliminary Issues in Planning of the Development of a Comprehensive Faculty Evaluation System
• Step 1: Determining the Faculty Role Model
• Step 2: Determining Faculty Role Model Parameter Values
• Step 3: Defining Roles in the Faculty Role Model
• Step 4: Determining Role Component Weights
• Step 5: Determining Appropriate Sources of Information
• Step 6: Determining the Source Impact Weights
• Step 7: Determining How Information Should Be Gathered
• Step 8: Completing the System: Selecting or Designing Forms, Protocols, and Rating Scale
• Generating an Overall Composite Rating (OCR)
• Using the OCR in Promotion, Tenure, Merit Pay, and Post-Tenure Review Decisions.
• Operating the Faculty Evaluation System: Peer Input and Review Issues.
• More Than 80 Years of Research on Student Rating
• Issues in Designing and Using Student rating Forms
• Catalog of Student Rating Items.
