A New Model for Measuring Instructional Effectiveness and Student Learning in the Classroom (original) (raw)

Abstract

The issue of instructional effectiveness has been a concern that has been debated for many years. While there have been many discussions over which method is best used to determine how instructional effectiveness is calculated, one main area method used by administrators is either the student evaluation of teaching (SET) or student evaluation of faculty (SEF). This paper proposes a new model where administrators consider other additional metrics as a means of determining instructor effectiveness and student learning. Two specific metrics include using a pre/post Computing Self-Efficacy survey evaluation and a specific task item Self-Efficacy survey. These metrics were applied to an introductory information system course. The results indicate that by utilizing both metrics faculty and administrators can find a better method for determining student engagement and instructional effectiveness in the classroom than the tradition student evaluation of teaching method.
