The recommendations were discussed and shared with the Senate Educational Policies Committee on May 18, 2020 and were accepted by the Faculty Assembly at the November 4, 2020 meeting.  \n1. Develop a Plan. Each academic unit should develop its own criteria, processes, and action plan to evaluate its faculty’s teaching performance. Units should:  \na. identify gaps in current assessment strategies, processes, and tools and develop an action plan to supplement and enhance existing practices.  \nb. Consult with the University Center for Teaching and Learning or input and assistance.  \nc. Submit the plan for approval to the Office of the [Provost at provost@pitt.edu](Provost at provost@pitt.edu), with a copy to the Teaching Center at [teaching@pitt.edu](teaching@pitt.edu) by April 30, 2021, with implementation target for Fall 2021.  \nSummative evaluations of teaching (e.g. annual review, promotion and tenure evaluations) should draw on multiple sources, such as:  \n• Peer review  \n• Student feedback  \n• Representative teaching materials/course artifacts  \n• Self-assessment  \n2. Raise Awareness. Academic units, with support from the Provost’s Office, should raise faculty awareness of the effective use of student input and the potential biases in student opinion of teaching surveys; they also should help faculty learn how to increase student response rates to surveys and how to raise students’awareness of the value of their opinions on course revision and improvement.  \nTeaching Center Resources:  \n•  Resources on improving teaching survey response rates  \n•  Readings on bias in teaching surveys  \n•  Resources on interpreting teaching survey results  \n• Tips for improving feedback and mitigating the effects of biases in teaching surveys  \n3. Consult Resources. The Teaching Center has made available a list of resources and research-based best practices. The Assessment of Teaching Initiative is also available to consult and provide feedback on the development of assessment of teaching plans.  \n4. Establish Clear Guidelines. Academic units should develop specific guidance for all faculty regarding expectations for teaching and assessment data to be included in annual reviews and promotion/tenure dossiers. This guidance should be tailored for faculty at different stages in their careers, with consideration given to needs and expectations of faculty who are tenured, in the tenure stream, or outside the tenure stream.  \n5. Access to Student Opinion of Teaching Survey Results: All deans and campus presidents should be given access to their school or campus survey results (administered through the Office of Measurement and Evaluation of Teaching (OMET) for all instructors of all ranks. Further, deans and campus presidents, in conjunction with their faculty and in accordance with each unit’s governance practices, will determine how the data are shared within their unit. These determinations should be conveyed to the Teaching Center on a regular basis (annually or upon personnel changes) so that system access can be granted to the appropriate individuals. This applies to the schools and campuses that use the services of OMET to administer their student surveys.  \nTeaching Center Resources:  \n•  Resources on interpreting teaching survey results  \n•  Additional readings on teaching survey interpretation best practices  \n• [Contact](Contact omet@pitt.edu)[ ](Contact omet@pitt.edu)[omet@pitt.edu](Contact omet@pitt.edu) for information about accessing reports  \nSAMPLE PLAN TEMPLATE  \nSection 1: Academic Unit’s Definition of Teaching Effectiveness  \nIn this section, describe the unit’s definition of teaching effectiveness.
