available to faculty through the CTE.
Individual, Small Group and

Small Group Instructional Feedback
(SGIF)
Upon faculty request, the CTE will conduct a SGIF for instructors interested
in collecting student feedback at mid-semester.
Teaching Circles
Teaching Circles are groups of 4 to 10 faculty who meet an average of six
times throughout a semester, or an academic year, to work together on a
specific issue concerning their teaching or students' learning. Refer to
this section for possible topics for Teaching Circles, suggestions for
forming and maintaining Teaching Circles, and to access an online
application form.
Videotaping
Watching a videotape of yourself teaching can be an extremely valuable assessment tool. Videotaping
allows you to view and listen to the class from the learner's perspective. By analyzing a videotape
of the dynamics in your classroom, you will gain valuable insights into your teaching by identifying
techniques that work and those that can be refined.
Support
