4. Abstract
This article addresses seven beliefs about college reaching prevalent among academic people, arguing that all are myths:
- (1) We are a self-governing community of scholars;
- (2) It is impossible to teach people to teach;
- (3) It is impossible to define good teaching;
- (4) It is impossible to measure or evaluate teaching (évaluation de l'enseignement);
- (5) Classroom observation of reaching is an infringement upon academic freedom (liberté académique);
- (6) Student evaluation of teaching is useless and/or meaningless (évaluation de l'enseignement);
- (7) Undergraduate srudents, or least, are generally stupid and unmotivated.
Analysis of these beliefs, all of which are demonstrably untrue, suggests that we maintain them for self-serving purposes: to define ourselves into a status and reward-bearing social category in which most of us probably do not belong; to free us from all accountability for classroom performance, and to rationalize laziness and irresponsibility in teaching. The article closes with some suggestions for rectifying the situarion.
