TCC: Requests for Mid-term Teaching Consultations are Open Now
End of semester evaluations can provide important feedback, but we never get
to change our practice for the students who gave the feedback.
The TCC is offering Small Group Instructional Feedback so that you
can receive feedback from students while they are still taking your class.
Between weeks 5-9 of each semester, our trained
consultants:
- Meet with you to learn what you'd like to know from your students
- Observe a class
- Survey the students while you are out of the room
- Synthesize the student feedback and discuss it with you
What happens while you are out of the room?
- Students reflect what is helping their learning and what is
not helping their learning
- They work in small groups to come to consensus about the those
questions
Why should faculty do it?
- This process demonstrates to students that you care deeply about their
learning
- It gives you a chance to hear what is really impacting students, and what
is not.
To request a consultation, please visit the TCC website under faculty
development services (https://www.monroecc.edu/organizations/tcc/program-services/consultations/
), or email Gena Merliss emerliss@monroecc.edu.
