  6. Format of UAFT File Organized by workload category (teaching, service, research or creative activity) Table of Contents Labels on divider tabs in words (not numbers keyed to another page) One medium-sized binder for retention reviews; no boxes, no plastic sleeves. Be selective.

  7. UAFT Contents of Retention File Vita Self-review + Goals & Objectives Workload Agreement for year under review Annual Activity Report for year under review Section on each workload category Past reviews (findings & recommendations) Verification of appropriate degree (certified transcript or statement that transcript is on file at OAA)

  8. UNAC Contents: Annual • Required documents • CV • Annual Activity Report • Self-review recommended but not required • “Materials appropriate for the purpose of the review” • Demonstrate “progression toward tenure”

  9. Comprehensive Fourth Year Review “Comprehensive and diagnostic review” by peer review committees and administrators If faculty member elects to stand for tenure and promotion, file cannot be withdrawn If tenure not awarded, may not stand again until mandatory year

  10. Depth appropriate to the Review • One-year review • Address each aspect of the workload assignment • Do not resubmit materials from the year before except for past review (findings & recommendations) • Comprehensive Fourth Year Review • Cumulative, but organized to provide overview • Address each area of the workload; intro/summary • Analyze and evaluate; don’t just list

  11. Teaching • Courses taught (indicate new preps) • Course syllabi • Student evaluation summaries • Other suggestions • Evaluation by peers • Innovations in pedagogy; high-impact practices • Evidence of student success (student research, awards, publication, scholarships, exit tests)

  12. Service • Different types of service • Departmental • University • Professional (disciplinary, regional, national) • Public/Community (professionally related; not just good citizenship) • One-year review: not likely to address all types • Comprehensive review: comment on range & depth of service; progression expected for tenure

  13. Research or Creative Activity • Articulation of research or creative agenda • Manuscripts in draft? Under review? In revision? • Grant proposals submitted • Creative productions in progress? • Products of research or creative activity • Publication • Grants awarded • Presentation or exhibition
