This award is open to full-time instructors who administer the Course Instructor Opinion Survey (CIOS). Qualifiers for the award must have at least an 85% student response rate. Awards are given based on CIOS scores for the 3 questions that pertain to the instructor's respect and concern for students, level of enthusiasm about teaching the course, and ability to stimulate interest in the subject matter. The proportion of small (15-39 students) and large (at least 40 students) classes that will qualify are based on the proportion of those classes in the Georgia Tech catalog for the past three years. Awards will be given each calendar year (fall and spring terms only). Nominations are not accepted for these awards. Funding for the 2021 awards, announced on February 25, 2022, is provided by the Class of 1934 and Jack and Frances Mundy endowment funds.
Questions? Contact Joyce Weinsheimer.
Selection Process
- Aggregate results for fall and spring will be used to determine potential winners for each class size (based on the minimum award criteria). Qualifiers are selected by the sum of the three scale items (Respect, Enthusiasm, Interest) on CIOS, then by the number of respondents in the case of a tie.
- Ineligible candidates (part-time faculty, visiting faculty, graduate students, upper administrators) will be eliminated.
- The top 28 small classes will be examined and ranked by the sum of the three scale items on CIOS (Respect, Enthusiasm, Interest) and then by the number of students who responded.
- The top 12 large classes will be examined and ranked by the sum of the three scale items on CIOS (Respect, Enthusiasm, Interest) and then by the number of students who responded.
- Faculty who appear in both the large and small class groups will be counted in the category that has fewer entries (which is usually the large class category).
