Abstract
This study identifies characteristics manifested in the classrooms of effec tive college and university teachers. Students rated teachers on items glea ned from the teaching effectiveness literature that were shown to be correl ates of excellent teaching. Results support the notion that the construct o f teacher effectiveness is not only multidimensional but may also require m ultiple definitions.
