Description
ABSTRACT This work reports results of a project designed to assess the validity of a student evaluation of teaching (SET) scale employed for over ten years in a business school at a small private college. The SET instrument was developed, pilot-tested, and implemented in 1980. For the past 25 years, scale scores derived from student responses have been used as a part of the annual evaluation of faculty for promotion, merit pay and evidence of teaching success. This study has never been replicated and there is concern that the three scales may not currently be representative. In this study we apply exploratory factor analysis to evaluations conducted over the past ten years to determine if and how the factor structure may have changed.
