Overview
As an instructor, how do you know if what you’re doing in the classroom is “working”? In other words, how do you know if your teaching methods are effective in engaging students and supporting them in achieving your course learning objectives? In this online workshop, we will discuss one strategy by which to evaluate and enhance your teaching beyond using course evaluations: collecting and using student feedback throughout the course. We’ll consider how to set up a classroom climate that is conducive to gathering student feedback. We will also review practical strategies and online tools to collect and respond to student feedback such as mid-semester feedback surveys and classroom assessment techniques (CATs) such as minute papers and polling.
After participating in this online workshop you will be able to:
- Use student feedback to enhance your teaching and the learning experience for your students
- Apply strategies to set up a classroom climate conducive to student feedback
- Identify teaching methods for collecting and responding to feedback from students throughout the course
