As a teacher, you may have questions about your daily work practice and want some feedback. You may find it helpful to have a sparring partner. If so, you can sign up for the teacher peer feedback. During peer-feedback sessions, colleagues think with you and share ideas and advice. This gives you insight into possible solutions to issues arising in your teaching practice.
Over the course of six two-hour sessions, you will be discussing submitted cases with a group of 5 to 7 colleagues. These sessions are done under the guidance of a coach and are set within a fixed structure. Examples of questions are: How do I get my students more involved online? How do I match my lessons design with the learning needs of students? How can I deal with deadlines and all the stress that comes with these? By discussing such issues with colleagues, you gain more insight into your own work situation, new perspectives and outcomes.

Course details
The course consists of six sessions. During the first meeting, people will get acquainted with each other and with the goals and framework of teacher peer-feedback. Each group will set its own rules, after which cases will be discussed. The other sessions consist of a round of peer-feedback in response to the issues that were raised. Depending on the needs of the group, experts in specific areas of teaching practice can be invited and various forms of peer feedback can be tried out.
