Abstract :
This paper focuses on the scholarship of teaching and the need to implement change in the evaluation practices of post-secondary institutions. The scholarship of teaching is closely linked to the development of instructional technology innovations. The principles underlying teaching excellence are inherent in the effective use of instructional technology innovations. Increasing the value placed upon teaching and learning is a primary concern of a research project called "Peer Review in Instructional Technology Initiatives" (PRITI). PRITI (2000-2002) is a collaborative initiative to develop a peer review model of evaluation, which will be used to assess instructional technological innovations for faculty reward and promotion. One of the deliverables is a set of evaluative criteria and templates to assist institutional academic program review bodies in the evaluation of existing and proposed offerings in distance and distributed learning environments.
