WORKING OUT LOUD

John Stepper’s book about Working Out Loud

Studied his own teaching and determined that those who came to class and those who watched via video did equally well in the class

I feel like I’m just breaking through now. I remember what it was like at the beginning.

ELICITING FEEDBACK

Waiting until the end of the semester to get input from our students is too late

Evaluations are valuable; but it only helps you the next time you teach the class

The Hawthorne Effect

Formal, anonymous surveys

* Customized end of semester surveys

* mid-semester surveys
* discussion boards

* in person:

* talking to students after class
* office hours
* regular lunches with students
* Reporting back about what you learned what your changing to respond

* Department-wide early warning systems—We’re trying this this year to give students in all our classes a chance to air concerns to the department early enough so we can do something about them.
