Transforming College Teaching Evaluation: A Framework for Advancing Instructional Excellence
An impactful approach to teaching assessment that boosts teaching practice while ensuring student success More effective learning goes hand-in-hand with a commitment to instructional excellence, but institutional approaches to instructor evaluation often fall short in assessing quality. In Transforming College Teaching Evaluation, Ann E. Austin, Noah D. Finkelstein, Andrea Follmer Greenhoot, Doug Ward, and Gabriela Cornejo Weaver propose a thorough reform of teaching evaluation that strengthens teaching and learning processes, enriches faculty practice, and enhances the institutional culture of teaching and learning for long-term success. This work understands that the academic department is the basic unit of change in a college and to truly transform teaching evaluation, department-level, college-level, and central institutional efforts must link together to drive reform. Leveraging data from the seven-year TEval study conducted at University of Colorado Boulder, University of Kansas, and University of Massachusetts, Amherst, the authors introduce a model for high-quality teaching evaluation that considers seven dimensions of educational practice, spanning the full array of teaching activities inside and out of the classroom. This framework incorporates a constellation of evaluative tools and data, such as faculty self-report, external reviews, and student surveys, and different approaches to evaluation that leaders can adapt to institutional needs. For administrators and educators seeking to advance modern teaching practices and fair teaching evaluation, this book provides a robust plan for reorienting the faculty reward system toward excellence.Sold out -

Environmental Justice: A Very Short Introduction
Environmental justice recognizes that environmental benefits and burdens should be distributed fairly, and that the people making policy decisions should incorporate the views of those most often harmed: people of color, Indigenous populations, low-income communities, and those who are underserved and disenfranchised for other reasons such as age, gender, or disability. It encompasses not only traditional environmental issues like clean air and clean water, but also social issues such as employment, nutrition, and access to health care. Although environmental justice is a relatively recent concept, it has become a focus of governmental environmental policy, UN actions, and the activities of many nongovernmental environmental organizations. Its development tracks our growing understanding of racism and wealth disparity in the US and elsewhere, and of our understanding of inequality between the Global North and the Global South. In the era of climate change, climate justice is a particular focus. In an engaging and approachable way, Environmental Justice: A Very Short Introduction defines the concept, identifies specific environmental justice populations, examines root causes, including racism, capitalism, and colonialism, and traces the history of the environmental justice movement and governmental responses to it. It concludes with suggestions for achieving this elusive goal. -

Es la manera en que Dios le da significado a nuestra vida. Cuando descubrimos que no existe mayor propó sito en nuestra vida que amar a Dios en todo momento, en cada actividad, y en cada pensamiento, el « terror» a la vida disciplinada es reemplazado por deseos y expectativas de una vida disciplinada.Sold out
