Description
This is part of the Pew FTLC National Center for Faculty Development & Diversity (NCFDD) Discussion Series.
Studies consistently show that student evaluations are biased against women faculty and faculty of color. Yet, higher education institutions continue to lean heavily on students’ evaluations of teaching for hiring and promotion decisions. This webinar is designed for faculty and administrators to better understand how student biases become transformed into institutional inequalities based on race and gender. The webinar provides administrators and faculty in leadership positions with a range of potential solutions for eliminating or minimizing the negative impacts of biased student evaluations. Recognizing that institutional change takes time, however, the webinar also provides strategies for empowering women faculty and faculty of color on how to advocate for themselves, particularly in situations where they are not being fully supported.
Participation in this program requires you view the How to Challenge Race and Gender Bias in Student Evaluations NCFDD Webinar PRIOR to attending the discussion session on December 11th. We will NOT be viewing this webinar as a group. Webinars can be viewed LIVE (by registering with NCFDD) or you can view the recorded version (requires you to activate your NCFDD Membership).
