Research and Reflection on the Effectiveness of Peer Evaluation of University Teachers’ Teaching

Abstract

Peer evaluation of university teaching aims to improve the quality of teaching, promote teaching innovation, and stimulate professional development of teachers through mutual evaluation and feedback among teachers. However, there are issues with inaccurate evaluation results, inconsistent formulation of evaluation standards, and insufficient feedback and application of evaluation results in peer evaluation of university teaching, which are not conducive to improving the effectiveness of peer evaluation of university teachers’ teaching. Therefore, this article studies the current situation and infl uencing factors of peer evaluation in higher education, and proposes suggestions to establish unifi ed evaluation standards and indicator systems, strengthen feedback and application of evaluation results, and provide training and guidance for teachers, in order to provide useful reference for the better play of teaching peer evaluation in universities.
