Teaching quality in higher education: Do student evaluation of teaching questionnaires allow a reliable and valid assessment of teaching quality?
Year: 2018
Type: dissertation
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: CONCLUSION to 20% of the variance at the beginning of the course.This result was interpreted as a strong effect of likability, which is theoretically unconnected to teaching quality, and thus undermines the validity of SETs.The results of the three studies suggest that SETs are a reliable instrument (when a sufficient number of at least 24 students complete the evaluation).The student characteristics, content expectations and prior subject interest, showed weak effects on SETs, whereas the likability of the teacher perceived by students strongly affected the SETs and hence was a solid threat to its validity as a measurement of teaching quality. How reliable are students' evaluations of teaching quality?A variance components approach
