Improvement: Effective Teaching Step 4
Bigger sample sizes are more accurate› Focused on collecting CCE artifacts
Focus on CT› Held several workshops/sessions› Discussed how we teach CT and how we
can teach it more effectively
That was cool…let’s do it again…Step 1
Effective Teaching Activity
Purpose:1) Familiarize yourself with the CSLO rubrics
Think of them as a resource2) Effective teaching often involves discussion with colleagues. 3) Understand how grading and CSLO assessment can differ.
