Tab 8: Personal Development Session
Objective
- To provide specific, individualized
feedback to participants based on direct observation of their teaching
approach and style.
- To improve participants' teaching
effectiveness and elevate their student and faculty evaluation scores.
- To provide participants a safe forum to
discuss instructional and evaluation issues with master teachers and
colleagues, including those issues that they may be uncomfortable
discussing with colleagues at their institution.
- To form sub-groups of participants and
master teachers who can serve as advisors to one another after the
seminar is over.
Process
Participants will be divided into cohort sub-groups. The groupings will be
determined before the program starts and participants will be informed in
which cohort groups they will participate.
The
master teacher will select a member from each group to facilitate the process. Each
participant will have approximately 15 minutes to use the time they feel
will be most valuable for their individual needs. The time devoted to the
presentation will be strictly adhered to. Roughly one half of the time
should be allocated to feedback, discussion, and completing the evaluation
form. This will occur immediately following the presentation;
participants will receive oral feedback from their peers and the master
teacher will have the opportunity to ask questions of the group regarding
that feedback.**
Participants may use their allotted time
to:
- Give a lecture, replicating one of their
class lectures they find most challenging to present allowing the
master teacher and participants in their group to provide full and
functional feedback to elevate the presenters teaching skills and
effectiveness.
- Present a set
of their course documents for feedback. Course
documents may include syllabi, PowerPoint slides, tests, simulations,
or others. The objective being to get practical and productive
feedback on their course documents and their lecture skills.
- Present a set
of course evaluation documents to get specific
constructive ideas, suggestions, and tools from the group to address
issues raised by the evaluation interment and their lecture skills.
- Present a topic he/she would like discussed by the group. This
should only apply if the participant is an administrator but will need
to inform the group's master teacher beforehand to make this request.
**
Each group will have access to the following instructional equipment: LCD projector,
laptop,
and flip chart or white board. If any other equipment is needed by the
participant they will need to bring it to the seminar. The participant
will need to bring copies of all course materials or any other items necessary to the delivery.
