Approx time: 2 hours

Purpose: Collecting some data about your teaching: In this activity we are looking to gather some data about our own teaching and gleen something about how our students see their learning experiences. To achieve this a tool is provided for you to conduct a mid-semester review of the unit or units you teach. The tool is a questionnaire for you to give to your students to fill out in class and evaluates the learning experience of the respondent.

You will then have collected your first real evidence of your own teaching.

PART B 1hr

1. Consider the responses of your students. (Dont let any negaitve comment get to you).
