Why bother?

Acquiring feedback on your teaching can help you ...

1. To become aware of your skills, achievements and strengths
2. To look for patterns (e.g., comparing comments over a number of years)
3. To document your strengths and efforts to improve (e.g., in a teaching portfolio)
4. To identify new approaches to help you meet your teaching objectives
5. To develop an effective teaching development plan by:

- clarifying your values, teaching objectives and goals
- assessing your skills
- translating perceived gaps into learning objectives or opportunities
- selecting appropriate development activities
- identifying and using resources
- developing strategies for continuous growth
