Book Faculty Compensation Systems  Impact on the Quality of Higher Education

Download or read book Faculty Compensation Systems Impact on the Quality of Higher Education written by Terry P. Sutton and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 2001-05-15 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public debate over higher education has changed from questions about education, learning, scholarship, and professional service to performance criteria measured in quantitative, business-like indicators, such as revenues and costs of operation. The rules have changed, and new consumers have new concerns and challenges for higher education. Faculty compensation is one means an institution can use to achieve its mission, and it is a management tool academic administrators can use to meet external demands for cost control, faculty performance, and institutional quality. This report focuses on: (1) the link between the faculty compensation system and its impact on institutional mission and quality; (2) the external and internal factors affecting the amount of faculty compensation; (3) changes in absolute and relative levels of faculty compensation over time and economic factors affecting these changes; (4) the different types of compensation systems used; (5) the intellectual rationale of the two compensation systems used most often; (6) operational advantages and disadvantages of the faculty compensation systems; (7) development of an effective faculty compensation system; and (8) the types of systems recommended for different institutions. Appended are: Illustrative Criteria for Faculty Merit Awards and Evaluation Tool for Satisfactory Faculty Standards. Name and Subject Indexes are also included. (Contains 100 references and 6 tables.) (SLD).

Book Developing a Comprehensive Faculty Evaluation System

Download or read book Developing a Comprehensive Faculty Evaluation System written by Raoul A. Arreola and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 2007 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on thirty-six years of research and experience building and operating large-scale faculty evaluation systems and consulting to thousands of college and university personnel, the author has established an eight-step process for building a comprehensive evaluation system. These steps include: Determining the faculty role model; Determining the faculty role model parameter values; Determining roles in the faculty role model; Determining role component weights; Determining appropriate sources of information; Determining the source impact weights; Determining how information should be gathered; and Completing the system by selecting or designing forms, protocols, and rating scales. In this third edition, each step, including the definitions of the various roles to be evaluated, has been expanded and enhanced based on the experiences of many institutions that have followed the procedure outlined in the book. The third edition also features a new introduction; fresh research in the field; updated forms and procedures; a new, detailed case study of an institution that developed a Web-enabled, computer-supported system based on the eight-step process; and a new body of work that defines the professoriate as a meta-profession with a rubric for defining more than twenty faculty skill sets. Readers will learn how to generate and use an overall composite rating in promotion, tenure, merit pay, and post-tenure review decisions; they will also discover the issues in designing or finding, using and cataloging student rating forms. Sample forms, worksheets, models, and sample faculty evaluation manuals round out this practical, user-friendly handbook for anyone developing a faculty evaluation system.

Book excerpt: An overview is provided of the history and current status of merit pay from the perspectives of faculty unions, community and junior colleges, and elementary and secondary schools. Chapter 1 stresses the need to raise the salaries of master teachers, and chapter 2 discusses the responses of faculty unions, faculty members, and the public to the advent of merit pay. Chapter 3 suggests that a rationale and philosophical basis be developed by colleges before a merit plan is instituted, while chapter 4 offers suggestions for the development of an administrative evaluation system to identify excellence in instructional performance. Types of merit pay or merit recognition plans in place or being proposed at elementary and secondary schools are reviewed in chapter 5, while chapter 6 summarizes the findings of a national study of merit recognition in American community colleges. Chapter 7 outlines the provisions of specific merit pay and merit recognition plans in two-year institutions. Chapter 8, the final chapter, presents a summary of the issues related to merit pay, reviews emerging trends, and expresses hopes for the overall improvement of the quality of the American education system in the next decade.

Book An Analysis of Gender Based Pay Equity of Instructional Faculty Members in the Virginia Community College System

Download or read book An Analysis of Gender Based Pay Equity of Instructional Faculty Members in the Virginia Community College System written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the premises of âEquity Theoryâ (Adams, 1963), this study evaluated the Virginia Community College System compensation rates and compared the salaries of similarly ranked and similarly qualified male and female faculty members. A quantitative analysis was conducted of the reported salaries of all full-time instructional faculty members in the Virginia Community College System in the Fall of 2006. The specific areas examined included salary, rank, highest degree earned, and full- or parttime employment status. Using the tenets of Equity Theory as a foundation, this study evaluated any differences in the compensation and rank between male and female faculty members to determine the âfairnessâ of salary policies. The population of this study included all instructional faculty members employed during academic year 2006-2007 in the 23 community colleges in the state of Virginia. Results of this analysis indicated that there were differences based on gender in the mean salaries of faculty members of the Virginia Community College System at the professor faculty rank for VCCS faculty members outside of Northern Virginia Community College and at the associate professor rank at Northern Virginia Community College. Findings of this study further indicated that faculty members in the Virginia Community College system overall were slightly more likely to be female, hold masterâs degrees, and hold assistant professor rank. Findings indicated that both males and females were equally likely to be employed as part-time faculty members in the Virginia Community College System and that both education and experience contributed significantly to salary in the Virginia Community College System.
