1 School Deans appoint a pool of evaluators who are trained by the Centre for University Teaching The staff member whose teaching is being evaluated is informed in confidence of the identity of the evaluator/s that the Dean proposes to appoint. If the staff member thinks he/she has a reasonable case for suggesting that a particular proposed evaluator is inappropriate, the staff member may in confidence advise the Dean accordingly. Accepted as reasonable. The Dean proposes a different evaluator. Not accepted as reasonable. The staff member is notified of the decision. The person whose teaching is being evaluated and the evaluator/s are included in one email, sent by the Dean or delegate, advising them to proceed with the evaluation process. Assigning evaluators No response OR Confirmation that the staff member has no objections School Dean selects staff whose teaching is to be evaluated School Dean identifies at least one evaluator from the Faculty appointed pool of trained peer evaluators to undertake each evaluation. This evaluator may be familiar with the discipline of the staff member being evaluated, where appropriate.

The criteria should represent the views of all participants. All participants agree the dates of the evaluation activities and meeting/s. The participants discuss strategies to manage the impact of the presence of evaluator/s on the students and class dynamics Observation of Activity 1 Comments recorded on one of the Observation Record forms available from CUT Observation of activity 2 (optional) Comments recorded on one of the Observation Record forms available from CUT Post-observation meeting for Activity (1 and) 2 Should occur immediately or as soon as possible after the observation session(s) have occurred Same as per Criteria-framed Discussion 1 Then: All participants discuss and agree the content of the Summary of Evaluation Outcomes for Activities 1& 2 and collaboratively write (decide who will write the first draft).
