Perceptions of teaching staffs on lecturer's evaluation: A case study on Technology College Sarawak (TCS) / Elizabeth Anak Enseng, Masrimah Hj Mawi and Joanna Azri

This study was carried out by the researchers in order to find out the teaching staffs' perception on the lecturer's evaluation at Technology College Sarawak (TCS). 43 out of 48 teaching staffs were selected as the sample of this study whereby the survey was conducted from the period of 2 November until 6 November 2013. The researchers have employed the descriptive and mean analysis in order to find out the teaching staffs' perception on lecturer's evaluation, while t-test, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Pearson Correlation were executed in order to test the four null hypotheses of the study. The finding revealed that the teaching staffs of TCS have positive perception on the lecturer's evaluation. However, the lecturer's evaluation form needs to be reviewed. Besides that, the researchers found out that gender, age, teaching experience, education level and specialization have significant influence on the perception on lecturer's evaluation. Finally, it is recommended that the institution use the students' passing rate as a reliable evidence on the lecturer's performance, instead of using the lecturer's evaluation result. In addition, the students should be given brief training by the Centre of Quality Assurance on how to fill in the lecturer's evaluation accurately.
