2010-11 Academic Year Evaluation of Professor Albert Whittenberg Professor Albert Whittenberg taught as an Adjunct Professor in the Department of History during this academic year as he continues to progress toward his Ph.D. in Public History. The focus of Professor Whittenberg’ teaching in the History Department shifted rather dramatically during this academic year, as he moved from teaching on-line General Education History courses to teaching graduate-level courses in archives administration as part of his professional resideney, which is one of the requirements of his Ph.D. program. During the Fall 2010 semester, he taught the “Seminar in Archival Management” as MTSU’s contribution for its participation in the Archives Educational Consortium. Although there were not a sufficient number of MTSU students enrolled in the class to generate a teaching evaluation report, Dr. Bren Martin received very high praise for the course from other consortium faculty. In the Spring 2011 semester, Professor Whittenberg taught his own section of “Essentials of Archival Adminsitration” in an in-class setting at MTSU. His evaluations for that class ranked him at or above average in all categories, which is a significant achievement for someone teaching a new course for the first time. Professor Whittenberg scored a perfect 5.0 in the category of “Student Interactions” for that class, which measures, for example, the encouragement of class discussion and the instructor's ability to relate to the students as individuals. The History Department was indeed fortunate to have such a skilled teacher with the specialized skills in archival administration available to teach these classes for this academic year.
