摘要
Interest in teaching-track faculty positions has been steadily increasing as enrollments in computer science degree programs continue to trend upward. While departments have welcomed these new teaching-track faculty members, senior faculty, department chairs, and university committees often struggle with how to best evaluate these faculty members during the promotion process. In our experience, some universities try to use a "watered-down" version of the tenure-track promotion standards with the intent of uniformity. Other universities have created whole new processes, which may be better at capturing the differences in teaching-track positions, but also can create a "second-class citizen" status for the teaching-track faculty members.For this panel, we will bring together teaching-track and tenured faculty who have been active in promotion committees, have written letters of support for teaching-track faculty, and have successfully guided junior faculty through the promotion process. Our goal is to shed light on the differing practices at various universities and help attendees understand how to best support junior teaching-track faculty.

随着计算机科学学位课程的招生人数继续呈上升趋势，对教师职位的兴趣一直在稳步增长。 虽然各系欢迎这些新的教职教师，但资深教员、系主任和大学委员会经常在晋升过程中为如何最好地评估这些教员而苦苦挣扎。 根据我们的经验，一些大学试图使用“淡化”版本的终身制晋升标准，以求统一。 其他大学开创了全新流程，这也许能更好地捕捉教学轨道位置的差异，但也可以为教学轨道的教员创造“二等公民”的地位。 在小组讨论中，我们将汇集在晋升委员会中积极参与的教师和终身教职教师，他们曾为教师撰写支持信，并成功指导初级教师完成晋升过程。 我们的目标是阐明不同大学的不同实践，并帮助与会者了解如何最好地支持初级教学课程教师。
