Air Force Instructor Evaluation Enhancement: Effective Teaching Behaviors and Assessment Procedures

Abstract

This paper investigates the feasibility of implementing an evaluation and feedback system for enhancing the teaching effectiveness of Air Training Command (ATC) instructors. State-of-the-art indicators of teaching effectiveness are reviewed and compared to instructor evaluation procedures in the public school sector, and those used by the Air Force, Army, and Navy. In addition, several measurement and observation procedures are described and prioritized in terms of their suitability for providing feedback to ATC instructors. Finally, recommendations are made on implementing an enhanced feedback system for increasing ATC instructor performance which complement procedures currently used by ATC.
