If the dean of your faculty asked you to serve on a committee to develop a performance appraisal system for evaluating the faculty, what performance criteria would you identify? Of these criteria, which ones do you think are most likely to determine the faculty members' success at your school? What standards would you recommend to the dean, regardless of the specific evaluation instrument selected?

Answer and Explanation:

The following shall be the performance criteria for assessing the success of faculty members in the school.

1. The first criterion is the attendance of faculty and the number of lectures that the faculty is supposed to take as compared with the number of lectures the faculty actually takes during an academic year.

2. The second criterion is to assessing of faculty based on student engagement i.e student attendance how much he or she is present in a school

3. The third criterion deals with faculty involvement with respect to mentoring and motivating them for curricular activities.

4. The fourth criterion is faculty behavior. How he or she is behaving with the management, colleagues, and students.

5. The fifth criterion is based on student performance.

By the above explanation,  we can conclude that the success of faculty could be determined mainly with the faculty attendance, his or her behavior students performance, etc

Now for the standard,  we recommend we have to consider the ten point scale so that we can analyze each faculty performance based on the criterion as discussed above.

And for the success of each lecture, we need to do the rating that should be a minimum of  5 out of 10 for all standards, etc

answer; /// i believe that the correct answer is (b) money set aside for emergency repairs;

ans.

heterothermic organisms include those organisms that can switch between homeothermic (having body temperature higher than environment) and poikilothermic (having variation in internal body temperature) strategies.

some migratory birds show heterothermy as they decrease their metabolic rate during cold nights to keep their body temperature low. drop in metabolic rate allows increase in production efficiency of birds that reduces the internal body temperature to make it equal to external cold temperature during cold nights.

thus, the correct answer is 'birds allow their temperature drop in order to increase their production efficiency.'
