Sinossi

Faculty Evaluation Methods explores the complex process of assessing law professors, examining the various methods used to gauge teaching quality and overall effectiveness. This book addresses a critical need in legal education: ensuring that faculty evaluations are comprehensive and genuinely contribute to academic rigor and faculty development. Interestingly, while student evaluations are common, their reliability and validity are often debated, highlighting the need for more holistic approaches that incorporate peer review and administrative reviews.

 
The book argues for a shift from purely quantitative metrics to a more qualitative approach, emphasizing the importance of diverse perspectives in evaluation. It meticulously analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of different evaluation tools, such as student feedback, peer observations, and self-assessments, while providing practical guidance for designing effective evaluation instruments. By drawing on empirical research and case studies, the book connects to fields like educational psychology and higher education administration to support arguments for improved evaluation practices.

 
The book progresses logically, starting with core principles and moving through the analysis of different evaluation methods, their role in promotion and tenure, and culminating in strategies for creating fair and transparent systems. This approach offers a unique and valuable perspective for law school deans, faculty, and administrators seeking to enhance teaching quality and foster a supportive environment for faculty growth through comprehensive academic management.

Mindmasters (Gary Tiedmann...

Sandra Matz

As algorithms become increasingly adept at accessing the human mind, they also become more and more powerful at controlling it, enticing us to buy a certain product or vote for a certain political candidate. Some of us say this technological trend is no big deal. Others consider it one of the greatest threats to humanity. But what if the truth is more nuanced and mind-bending than that? 
 
 
 
In Mindmasters, Columbia Business School professor Sandra Matz reveals in fascinating detail how big data offers insights into the most intimate aspects of our psyches and how these insights empower an external influence over the choices we make. This can be creepy, manipulative, and downright harmful, with scandals like that of British consulting firm Cambridge Analytica being merely the tip of the iceberg. Yet big data also holds enormous potential to help us live healthier, happier lives—for example, by improving our mental health, encouraging better financial decisions, or enabling us to break out of our echo chambers. 
 
 
 
With passion and clear-eyed precision, Matz shows us how to manage psychological targeting and redesign the data game.

Meaningful Economics - Making...

Bart J. Wilson

Economics has a problem—the discipline cannot distinguish the causes of human action from the consequences of human action. Economists deal with matters of fact, not with feelings and morals. They model representations of optimal agents, not flesh-and-blood human beings in ordinary life.  
In Meaningful Economics, Bart J. Wilson challenges economics to directly engage human beings as we really are, not as economists ideally assume. Wilson argues that economic science is as much about purposes and human values as it is about incentives. Moreover, he shows how the outcomes of our decisions (costs and benefits) and the origins of our decisions (motives and goals) can be understood in an integrated way.Over the course of the book, Wilson develops a framework that connects the origins of human action to the outcomes of human action, explaining human conduct with causes and effects. He then shows how three basic principles of economics—trade, specialization, and property—require meaning, values, and purpose. With a fresh perspective and a novel theoretical framework that bridges economics and ethics, Meaningful Economics explains the roots of human conduct and its economic effects by grounding a science of economics in the moral sentiments that prompt human beings to act.
