Evaluating your own teaching 2

Building on the first-year training, teachers will continue gathering feedback on their teaching. In this session, you will evaluate teaching videos, formulate specific learning questions, and provide peer coaching based on your colleagues’ videos.

Note: In Evaluating Your Own Teaching 1, you learned the basics of collecting feedback. In Evaluating Your Own Teaching 2, you will use evaluation forms to assess teaching videos, and the observations from this session can be included in your UTQ portfolio.

You can set achievable and measurable goals for yourself in respect of the above too.
Preparation		Make sure to have done the following preparation (otherwise you unfortunately won’t be able to participate in the training): Record a tutorial meeting of you teaching, and select 10 minutes of the video to use for this training: Plan and record your tutorial using a camera (BRIO2, available in the tutorial room, or borrow an OWL) and software (MS Teams or Kaltura Capture). Seek assistance from your ICTO department if needed. Bring your laptop, earphones, the recorded video, and the student observation forms to the training. Let at least two students of your group fill out (either on paper or digitally) this observation form for the recorded tutorial meeting, and bring these forms to the training. Recommended literature (to understand the background of the used observation form): Schelfhout, Dochy, F., Janssens, S., Struyven, K., & Gielen, S. (2006).

What your colleagues took home:

“Getting a third person perspective on my teaching from observation of a video was actually quite interesting, and objectively useful too. It is eye-opening to see how colleagues from other departments structure their tutorials and exchange about the didactical implications of it.”

“It was helpful for me that you are already collecting evidence for the UTQ portfolio by participating in this training.”

“After this training I want to schedule observations more often even if it takes some time, it is very valuable and I can learn a lot from it.”
