Inviting Criticism of Your Own Ideas A Berkeley Compendium, this site contains two important components of ongoing self evaluation. The two areas discussed are pointing out alternative views and encouraging students to take different approaches than your own.
The National Teaching and Learning Forum is a "conversation about teaching, "edited by James Rhem. The talk ranges from citations and addresses, the kind of useful facts and access keys friends scribble out for each other, to anecdotes that make a point, to serious arguments for a particular point of view, to familiar essays in which a faculty member distills wisdom from experience. A fine resource to examine course progress.
POD The Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education provides support and services to those interested in faculty development through conferences, newsletters, publications, and consulting.
Fast Feedback The most widely used method for evaluating teaching is the end-of-course questionnaire. Much more effective are fast feedback activities that take place during the semester. Informal sampling of students' comprehension of the subject matter will enable you to gauge how and what students are learning. "Fast feedback" is an effective way to gain mid-course evaluation, and is explained fully in the Berkeley Compendium.
