Professional Development and Mentoring of New Faculty

New Faculty Mentoring

Each new full-time faculty member in the Department of Music will be assigned a faculty mentor from among the full-time bargaining unit faculty. The faculty mentor will be assigned by the Chair of the Department. The mentor will meet regularly with the new faculty member, at least throughout the new faculty’s first year, to help the new faculty member become familiar with the policies and procedures of the Department of Music, the College of Liberal Arts, and Wright State University, and to offer assistance with teaching, scholarship, and service.

Professional Development for areas of concern

Should the Department Promotion Tenure and Review Committee or the Department Chair identify an area in which a faculty member needs to improve, the Department Chair, and/or the PT&R Committee will meet with the faculty member to discuss the problem and identify methods by which the faculty member may improve in this area. Such methods might include: meeting with another faculty who has demonstrated excellence in the area of concern or meeting with the Faculty Development Committee to discuss other development options.

Teaching Assignments and Class Schedules, Including Summer and Overloads

Annually each full-time faculty will submit a Faculty Activity Plan to the Chair of the Department. This activity plan will include the faculty member’s recommended plan for scholarship and service for the upcoming year and the faculty member’s input and suggestion for their teaching assignment.

Faculty Involvement in the Review of Chairs: In accordance with the CBA, the faculty will notify the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts as to its recommendations of procedures to be used to evaluate the chair of the department of Music.

Section IV. Procedures and Criteria for Annual Evaluation of Faculty

PROCEDURE

Submission of Materials for Annual Evaluation. Faculty will submit a summary of their accomplishments in Teaching, Scholarship and Service for the preceding calendar year to their department chair and their PT&R committee (if being reviewed in that year). The faculty member must submit evidence of successful teaching beyond syllabi and final exams to the Department PT&R Committee for peer evaluation.

Peer Evaluation of Teaching. The Departmental PT&R committee will serve as the Peer Review Committee. The Committee will review materials submitted by faculty members and rate them according the criteria noted below. The department PT&R Committee will present a written summary of each faculty member’s teaching and a recommended integer rating to both the faculty member and the department chair prior to the chair’s annual evaluation of faculty. The written peer review statements should include an account of the evidence that was used to arrive at the evaluation.

Peer Evaluation of Teaching will be conducted for tenured Assistant Professors and Associate Professors in the years the faculty member is receiving the review for progress toward promotion to the next rank.

The Peer evaluation of Teaching for Professors must occur at least once every three years.

Evidence of Teaching Effectiveness, for faculty members, will be examined by the peer review committee and the Department Chair, and may include, but is not limited to, the following: student evaluations; syllabi, exams, assignments, handouts, and other course materials; student preparation in upper levels of sequenced courses; student work seen in sophomore reviews, board exams, recitals, concerts or senior papers; unsolicited testimonials; student interviews; consultation with other faculty members; class observation; utilization of services offered by the Center for Teaching and Learning; and teaching awards.

Annual Evaluation. Annual evaluations should recognize faculty for their successes in diverse areas of their professional lives. Thus, in some years, teaching, scholarship, or service may be weighted more highly than others. The Music Department adopts the following standard of percentages for weighting each of the three professional areas of teaching, scholarship, and service.

Relative Weights For Teaching, Scholarship and Service (the three percentages must add up to 100%

1. Teaching: 25-50%

2. Scholarship: 25-50%

3. Service: 25-50%

Department Chair will evaluate each area of each faculty member’s professional activity and assign an integer to that area, using the criteria stated below. The Chair will then assign to each area a percentage from the range above that gives the faculty member the maximum possible overall average.

The Chair may assign a different weighting from that defined above in any of the following situations:

• The faculty member has work assignments that differ from those of other faculty.

• The Chair is imposing discipline pursuant to the contract.

• The Chair is acting to correct a pattern of substandard performance extending for

more than one year.

Faculty will review the integers assigned for annual evaluation by the department chair and the reasons given for their assignment. Faculty members who agree with the evaluation will sign a copy of the evaluation and return it to the department chair. Faculty who disagree with the evaluation, may prepare a rebuttal, which should be submitted to the chair. This rebuttal must be attached to the evaluation (per contract) and forwarded to all entities who will see the annual evaluation.

CRITERIA

Teaching. Teaching includes, but is not limited to, the development of course materials, presentation of course content, classroom management, evaluation of students, mentoring students, supervising theses independent studies and student performances, course revision and development, maintaining currency in one’s teaching field, and establishing teaching range and flexibility. It is evaluated using the data listed under peer evaluation.

Note:

1. 1For ensemble directors one performance per ensemble done as a direct result of rehearsals during each quarter, will be counted as teaching and not as scholarship.
