Description
Summary:Recently, peer evaluation, or peer review as it is sometimes termed, has been identified as one of these methods. Because professional growth was valued, the faculty undertook the task of developing a systematic means of peer evaluation through the development of a peer evaluation tool. The work of an ad hoc committee resulted in an experimental evaluation form that was made available for use by any faculty member on a voluntary basis. The hope in doing this was that faculty concerns of the past would be laid to rest, and peer evaluation could then be viewed as positive and worthwhile. [...]the committee wrote a philosophy for peer evaluation in our school of nursing. An example of this might be an instructor, expert in the care of the adult medicalsurgical patient, unable to assess whether a peer's classroom presentation on assessing behavior of the psychotic client "supplements text with relevant material." [...]a third column, "cannot assess" was added.
