""Transforming College Teaching Evaluation helps us rethink how to prepare, support, coach, and evaluate professors to ensure excellence in every college class. This important book gives higher education leaders even more reason to elevate good teaching alongside service and research."" --Nancy L. Zimpher, special advisor to the president, National Association of Higher Education Systems, and chancellor emeritus, State University of New York ""Change resistance in higher education is strong--but not impermeable. This inspiring guide, crafted by leading change experts, focuses on transforming teaching evaluation as a foundation for sustained excellence. The authors masterfully outline the challenges of scaling innovation and share powerful, elegant strategies for success."" --Lorne Whitehead, special advisor on entrepreneurship, innovation, and research and professor of physics and astronomy, University of British Columbia ""While there have been innumerable calls to change the system of teaching evaluation in higher education, this volume fills a critical, missing link in achieving that goal. It offers evidence-based, field-tested strategies for the comprehensive evaluation of teaching, and it sketches a roadmap for navigating the process of institutional change needed to make that vision a reality."" --Matt Kaplan, executive director, Center for Research on Learning and Teaching, University of Michigan
