Abstract:

The quality of instruction that a university or college provides is often measured in terms of student ratings. Since one of the major goals of educational institutions is to provide superior instruction, most institutions strive to hire and maintain teaching faculty who consistently have high student evaluations. They also often require teachers to submit student evaluations as a measure of their teaching effectiveness when applying for merit raises or promotions.
