Teaching Evaluations

Sources: Teaching Effectiveness Surveys [ICU]
and IDEA Ratings of Student Instructions [AUW]

 

As explained in My Teaching Philosophy page, student feedback and independently-gathered student ratings of instruction are an important—though hardly the only—tool for assessing the effectiveness of my teaching.

As a result, and in the interests of transparency, below are the links to all of the student evaluations for all of the courses which I have designed and taught since Academic Year 2013.

This, of course, includes both positive and negative feedback, the latter being especially important in terms of helping me devise new teaching strategies and revise my teaching methods.

Only electronic documents have been uploaded; informal feedback forms for each course will be scanned and uploaded progressively. All links open new windows to PDF documents.

In 2016, an independent evaluation of my teaching was carried out in the context of my promotion process and can be found under Promotion File. Class observations by Deans of Faculty can be found here.
