Description

With increasing calls for accountability of faculty, the use of peers as teaching consultants could be the answer to how to monitor our own effectiveness as professionals.This volume of New Directions for Teaching and Learning provides practical advice on how to use consultation to improve teaching, both through faculty development centers and through peer consultation. The authors give detailed descriptions of a variety of effective approaches to instructional consultation, including classroom observation, student focus groups, small group instructional diagnosis, faculty learning communities, and action learning. This is the 79th issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Teaching and Learning.
