Abstract

Last year, New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJ1T) instituted a one-day workshop for its new faculty. The workshop tried to acquaint the new faculty with many different areas of the university, and part of the workshop dealt with teaching effectiveness and methodology. To provide a framework to understand the necessary steps in effective teaching, a presentation was developed relating the necessary skills to the current evaluation form used at NJIT for faculty. This paper will describe this presentation, and how numerous action items were developed from the faculty evaluation sheets that are used by our students each semester. There are seven areas that are covered in these evaluation sheets, including how to more effectively communicate with students, how to stimulate interest in course content, and how to effectively demonstrate \ knowledge of course material. Details on how to achieve excellence in these areas are presented.
