Committee Procedures
The Committee will receive the materials, which will be read by at least
3 committee members, and evaluated using the criteria in Faculty
Senate Resolution #91-29 (attached). The seven
characteristics of effective teaching will all have equal weight. No
members of the subommittee will vote on candidates whose portfolio they have
not read.
The final pool of at most twelve
applicants will be contacted by the chair of the Ad Hoc Academic Awards
Committee. A copy of this correspondence will also be sent to the Provost
and Vice Chancellor for Health Sciences for their information. Finalists
must provide a videotape showing them teaching a portion of a class. The
video segment submitted to the committee must be fifteen to twenty consecutive
minutes in length, must include at least one pan of the students, and must have
been recorded within the past 3 semesters. The date, time, and class must
be indicated on the video tape. The finalists will be given 3 to 4 weeks
to provide the videotape.
The Ad Hoc Teaching Awards Committee
will evaluate the materials, including the videotapes, and by scoring determine
the 3 winning candidates. Once determined, the Committee will randomly
choose one recipient to receive the Robert L. Jones Award, with the other two
receiving the University Award.
The names of the winning candidates
