dc.description.abstractThis study aims to determine whether different perceptions of ethnicity, gender and qualifications(academic background) of the learner provide an explanation of teaching performance. Perceptionsdetermine interpersonal behaviour (including communication and motivation) and the way learnerbelieves that they are going to be assessed by the teacher. Thereby, this will impact to student'sevaluation of teaching performance (Student Evaluation of Teaching -SET). This study involvesconsideration of ethnocentric and gender bias evident in post graduate students undertakingaccounting related courses. The study will apply quantitative (i.e. online and offline surveys andSET data collection) approach. A quantitative pilot study will be carried out to collect data from asample of students' evaluation of teaching (SET) and on-line and off-line surveys, to demonstratethat:learners' evaluation of teaching performance is influenced by learners' perception of theinterpersonal behaviour of the teacher; andthis learners' perception have been formed through their own ethnocentric and gender biastogether with their academic background.
