| Abstract/Description: | The researcher examined how recency effect influences student evaluations of faculty. Students were examined to determine the effects caused by rater training and keeping diaries of their instructors performance. Students used The University of West Florida Student Assessment of Instruction as a pretest and posttest to evaluate their instructor. Results indicated that recency effect does exist. Results also indicated that even though students have not heard of recency effect they have recognized and experienced the effect. Faculty interviewed clearly defined and understood the impact of recency effect, including several of the faulty admitting they tried to influence student evaluations based on recency effect. | |
