Contextualizing Your SPoT Results

 

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 and develop a plan for enhancement of student learning. 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.
