Looking for confidential feedback on your teaching? Don’t miss your chance! The CTL offers Teaching Observations and Mid-Course Reviews (MCRs) with trained peer consultants to get direct feedback and support.
Teaching Observations
The CTL offers Teaching Observations with trained peer consultants who can help you think through your course goals, your teaching observation experience, and your future teaching. CTL Teaching Observations are confidential, evidence-based, and developed to support you in your teaching practices.
Friday, November 2 is the last day to request a Fall 2018 Teaching Observation.
Mid-Course Reviews (MCRs)
The CTL offers Mid-Course Reviews (MCRs) with trained peer consultants who talk directly to your students about what they find to be the most helpful and the most challenging aspects of your course, and then report back to you. CTL Mid-Course Reviews are confidential, formative, and designed to support you in your teaching practices.
Friday, November 2 is the last day to request a Fall 2018 Mid-Course Review.
Upcoming Events
Metacognition as a Tool for Equity in the Classroom

Examining key research in cognitive development theory, participants will learn how to intentionally use metacognitive strategies that help build students’ awareness of themselves as learners.
