lterrat's bookmarks 2017-07-13
Summary:
- "Without a common framework for handling promotion and tenure (P&T) for interdisciplinary and collaborative work, local efforts are hindered.
- Synthesis of insights from literature and models of recognizing interdisciplinary and collaborative work yields an evaluation framework.
- Building an institutional culture of reward requires reviewing current practices and policies in order to foster fair and equitable evaluation informed by appropriate criteria.
- Consistency is needed across all phases and levels in a systematic approach to evaluation that assures both alignment and comprehensiveness.
- Further research is needed to better understand contextual dynamics of particular fields and types of institutions as well as mid- to long-term effectiveness of changes that have been introduced."
