The evaluation of faculty at Collin County Community College
District (CCCCD) is a continuous process that focuses on
the professional growth and development of each member in
relationship to the position description and institution
and divisional goals and priorities (References
1, 2, 3). Each component has standard published criteria
that are documented on designated forms.
Components of the full-time faculty evaluation process
are (A) student evaluations of instruction (Reference
4), (B) evaluation forms for classroom visit, by the
dean (Reference 5), and (C) faculty
performance appraisals by the dean (Reference
6). Student surveys are conducted each semester, with
results reviewed by the faculty member and the dean. A classroom
visit by the division dean is conducted at least once in
each annual contract period or twice during a multi-year
contract period. Annual faculty performance appraisals are
conducted by the division dean for all full-time faculty
members and include the summation of other evaluation results
and an assessment of the faculty member’s performance, including
teaching, student advising, interpersonal communication,
professional development, and college service.
To be considered for a multi-year contract each full-time
faculty member must submit an application to the elected
faculty peer review group, the Council on Excellence (COE)
(Reference 7). This application contains
(A) a complete set of annual faculty performance appraisals
for the contract period being considered, (B) a self-evaluation
(Reference 8), using a form specified
by the COE, and (C) a Board Report form (Reference
9) that summarizes the key contributions made by the
faculty member during the prior contract period. The COE
reviews all appraisals and student evaluations, and presents
a recommendation regarding the applications for multi-year
contracts to the appropriate Vice Presidents. This recommendation
is reviewed by the appropriate Vice President, who presents
a recommendation to the President. The Board of Trustees
reviews the President’s recommendation and makes the final
decision regarding faculty contracts.
The associate (part-time) faculty evaluation process includes
an annual classroom visit by the division dean, the department
chair, or a designee. Student Surveys of Instruction are
administered to all class sections each semester and are
available in the respective division office for review by
the faculty member. The Student Surveys of Instruction and
the results of the class visits are used to recommend the
hiring of part-time faculty each semester.
