This report should assist your chair or program director in preparing salary recommendations. Please provide a clear and concise(no more than 4 pages) appraisal of your achievements and activities in the period under review. Your chair/director will forward your report to the divisional executive committee and the Dean along with his or her recommendation. Submit this cover page (signed) and a copy of your current curriculum vitae along with your report.
Chairs will make one of the following recommendations: standard merit; partial merit; no merit. Chairs may also recommend extraordinary merit awards. In preparing your report please keep in mind that most faculty who do the work they are supposed to do, at the level expected at CC, will receive any approved across-the-board raise and a standard merit increase. Extraordinary merit means just that: it is awarded to recognize special achievements or contributions. Reports are most helpful when they describe how a faculty member has met expectations in teaching, scholarship and service, and highlight any elements of these criteria that are distinctive. Most of us know when we have met expectations and when we have performed in ways that are distinctive relative to other years or to other faculty members. If you think particular aspects of your work have been extraordinary, summarize these achievements and provide specific examples to explain why they are noteworthy. In your printed report you might comment, as appropriate, on some of the areas listed below.

New courses or course revisions in response to feedback from students or colleagues and/or substantive or pedagogical developments in the field; if available, provide evidence that these efforts enhanced students’ learning. Describe changes in courses or new course design, and indicate whether your efforts were supported by a curricular development grant, college initiative or other source of funding and support.
