| Abstract: | Teaching, research and service have traditionally been viewed as the primary roles of institutions of higher learning. Recently colleges and universities have been reevaluating their commitment to teaching in response to new accreditation guidelines and pressure from state legislatures and other stakeholders who contribute to the budgets of higher education. Many professors and college administrators have also called for a renewed emphasis on teaching. In keeping with this renaissance of interest in teaching, the Teaching and Curriculum Section of the AAA initiated a project in the summer of 1994 to examine methods for promoting and evaluating effective teaching.This report presents an overview of the Committee's work. In addition to identifying five accounting programs with “best practice” systems for promoting and evaluating teaching effectiveness, the Committee's report stresses the importance of a comprehensive administrative system and the AECC's dimensions of effective teaching. |
