Those ...Ugh--I'm right there with you, Horace. Those bad evals always stick in my craw, even--and especially--when they are in bad faith, as you put it. And they stick there for a long time. <br /><br />Wish I had some sure-fire way to un-stick them, but I don't. I think for me the "stickiness" comes from a sense of betrayal. <br /><br />And I agree, we need to come up with better ways to assess teaching effectiveness.
