The Framework for Assessing Teaching Effectiveness, or FATE initiative at Boise State seeks to develop an inclusive framework and rubric to formatively and summatively assess teaching. The rubric is intended to be applicable to all teaching faculty. Implementation and assessment of its use is underway at Boise State. For more information on the development of the FATE initiative at Boise State University, please see the 2021 article in College Teaching and the 2023 article in New Directions for Teaching and Learning.
