Contextualizing Your SPoT Results:
A hands-on session to reflect on your teaching in your annual evaluation
In this hands-on workshop facilitated by Kasi Jackson (ADVANCE Center, Women’s and Gender Studies), instructors will apply qualitative data analysis methods to their Student Perception of Teaching (SPoT) results. Participants will organize SPoT results and identify other sources of data to address: 1) how their teaching fills their academic unit’s mission and goals; 2) student learning grounded in the course learning outcomes; and 3) student experience of the learning environment (SPoT). Instructors can then use these key points in their teaching narratives for annual review and promotion/tenure.
Attendees should bring their computer to retrieve their SPoT results and access their course materials.
Please Note: Though examples for narratives/evaluation materials are being shared, faculty should be sure to get clarity from their chairperson/director on any specific format or guidelines that the department/school expects them to follow.
