Research On University Teachers' Performance Evaluation In S&T

Colleges and universities are the important part of national scientific and technical innovation system. Teachers in colleges and universities are the major force in this innovation, which has been one of the teachers'main duties. So, scientific and reasonable evaluation system and inspiring mechanism should be used to evaluate teachers'innovative work to promote teachers'enthusiasm and creativity in scientific and technical innovation.Compared with research personal in scientific research institutions, university teachers'scientific and technical innovation work has its particularity, for the reason that they have another holy ability-teach students. University teachers'scientific and technical work should accelerate discipline construction. They should improve the teaching quality and the students'innovation ability by teaching the advanced S&T knowledge and impact them with science sprit. In addition, different teacher has his own characteristic just as his discipline, specialty and seedtime. So to study the problems of the university teachers'performance evaluation in S&T and to bring forward scientific, fair and reasonable performance evaluation index system according to the type of university, discipline and seedtime is very important. It not only can promote teachers'enthusiasm and creativity in scientific and technical innovation but also can accelerate discipline construction and improve the level of cultivating students in universities.Based on the analysis of the present situation of teachers'performance evaluation in S&T in our country, this thesis brought forward the conception of scientific and technical performance evaluation. Due to this concept, the evaluation on university teachers should include R&D, application of R&D achievements and science and technology service (STS). After analyzing the investigating questionnaire and the literature search, this thesis brought forward the concept and principle of university teachers'performance evaluation in S&T according to the existing problems, such as accelerating discipline construction, classified evaluation by school types, discipline types and teachers'different condition, making the comfort innovation environment, designing the reasonable evaluating cycle. In the evaluating model, the indexes of scientific and technical cost and negative output were given by the author. The evaluation index system and weight and evaluating model were built with the indexes of cost, output and negative output according to different types of teacher. At last, a demonstration was given according to a university's actual condition. Based on the theory of performance evaluation, management of science and technology, motivation theory, combined together with the evaluating methods of Delphi, AHP and bibliometrics, the index system and model of university teachers'performance evaluation was built up. This thesis systemically studied the problems of university teachers'performance evaluation in S&T. It strives to provide academic support and useful methods for university teachers'performance evaluation in S&T.
