Abstract

This study investigated the effect of student performance (ESP) and nature of student feedback (NSF) on student evaluation of teaching (SET) using 150 students (n =38 males, n = 112 females). They were randomly assigned to a 2 (NSF: Anonymous versus Non-anonymous) X 3 (ESP: Pass versus No results versus Fail) between-subjects factorial experimental design (n=30). Participants evaluated a video of a teacher teaching; using the Teacher Judgement Scale (TJS). TJS was developed following universal social judgment dimensions of warmth and competence. The primary hypothesis was accepted as participants rated the teacher as more competent than warm, thereby supporting the supremacy of competence in the evaluative domain for teaching. These findings, with technology, would be integral to prolonging SET's usage.
