The Validity of Students' Evaluations: Classroom Evaluations of Instructors Independently Nominated As Best and Worst Teachers by Graduating Seniors
Marsh, Herbert W.
American Educational Research Journal, 14, 4, 441-7, F 77
Nominations made by graduating seniors for most and least outstanding instructors were compared with university-wide instructional evaluations adopted the following year. The findings offer support for the validity of students' evaluations because the distinction between instructors nominated most outstanding and least outstanding by graduating seniors was reflected in classroom evaluations.
