Cohen, Peter A.; McKeachie, Wilbert J.

Improving College and University Teaching, v28 n4 p147-54 Fall 1980

A distinction needs to be made between summative evaluation conducted for administrative decisions such as pay increases, promotion, and tenure, and formative evaluations designed to improve teaching.
