"Equitable Faculty Evaluation Practices” University of Massachusetts Amherst ADVANCE Program.https://doi.org/10.7275/82de-5h50https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14394/1956Faculty evaluation is central to universities, but many strategies for evaluating faculty reflect gender and racial biases. These biases in evaluation help explain the lack of progress most academic institutions have made toward greater representation and inclusion. This makes it urgent for universities to create more equitable review procedures. It is also important to remember that faculty evaluation is a continual process, and not simply a set of discrete, formal, evaluative events. Thus, to improve evaluation of faculty, we need to target how we evaluate faculty in formal and informal ways. The good news is that relatively simple changes in process and practice can enhance equity and inclusion in faculty evaluation.http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/shared_decision_making
