Abstract

What other things besides performance tell us about teaching? How might these things be assessed? In this workshop, we will examine these questions within the context of mathematics. A sample syllabus for a "Contemporary Mathematics" course will be assessed using a syllabus evaluation tool. In addition, a reflective paper and a critical incident reflection will be examined to see how they influence our thinking. This will be followed by a discussion of alternative methods of assessment, such as portfolios.

Note: Dr. Chism is author of the book "Peer Review of Teaching" which the Department used as a Resource for the Peer Review of Teaching Program last year. (The new edition is due out in May.) Dr. Chism has agreed to serve as a consultant; to listen to our experiences and suggest directions which we might take. Please come with questions!
