Hello Don, Impressive process you have described. It is not unusual for people to avoid engaging in a thorough developmental activity such as this. I applaud your efforts. It is especially good that you allow the faculty members to contribute their own opinions and suggestions around the courses. This surely increases their buy-in to the developmental process. The fact that you also use the feedback from students, not just your own observations, increases the validity of the process. Always good to include the opinions of others when doing developmental work. Obviously, if this were a process to determine something such as ... say ... pay raises, you'd have to take care in using any feedback other than your own. But your process sounds great. Using multiple sources makes it resemble a 360 degree feedback process, another useful tool for developing others. Jason
