evaluation and accountability of the various service providing institutions.
Recognizing the situation Higher Education Commission of Pakistan has
established a mechanism to evaluate the university teachers. The question of
authenticity and acceptability of students’ evaluations as a valid criterion
for teachers’ performance has become a debate in Pakistan. The Higher
Education Commission of Pakistan has set students’ evaluation of their
teachers’ teaching as a valid criterion for the performance evaluation of the
university teachers. The present study intends to explore the authenticity
and acceptability of students’ evaluation of teaching at university level in
Pakistan. Population of this study was all the students and the faculty
members at University of Sargodha. The sample of this study was 191
students and 15 teachers selected from two departments – the Department
of Education and the Department of Psychology. A questionnaire
consisting of twenty eight questions was developed and used after
validation for data collected from the students. The teachers were
interviewed to get in-depth understanding of the matter. The results show
that the students perceive students evaluation of teaching as authentic and acceptable for improvements in teaching. Apart from the teaching ability of
a teacher, it is generally based on personal likeness and dis likeness. The
teachers consider students’ evaluations of teaching as authentic and
acceptable in social aspects and unauthentic and unacceptable in technical
aspects. There are no inter-group differences in the perception of students
in this regards.
