    Abstract:
    The effect of practitioner experience on teaching effectiveness of faculty in coordinated undergraduate programs in dietetics (CUPs) was studied on the basis of ratings from program directors, students, and program graduates. Instruments to measure teaching effectiveness were developed that contained 36 items common to all teaching situations and 6 each related to teaching in clinical/community dietetics and to food service management. Four dimensions of effective teaching were identified using factor analysis: interpersonal skill, dietetic expertise, organizational focus, and clinical or practical orientation. Extensive practitioner experience did not contribute to teaching effectiveness.
