Register for a Spring Teaching Triangle
The Teaching Triangles program provides faculty with an opportunity to gain new insight into their teaching and students’ learning through a non-evaluative, formative process of reciprocal class visits and reflection. The three people in a triangle agree to visit one class session for each participant over the course of a semester and meet to discuss what they learn from their visits about their own teaching. Triangles are created to connect faculty in different departments. All first year faculty participating in a teaching triangle are matched with faculty who have completed the faculty fellows program. The goal is to create a respectful, reciprocal, reflective dialogue on teaching and learning.
