Evaluating Learning

Student Evaluation

Students are evaluated on how well they:

• participate in discussions
• work with a partner to analyze survey data sets to answer specific questions
• work with a partner to lead a discussion on a particular topic (iterations 1 and 2, not 3)
• write a research paper on a topic related to pregnancy outcomes

Course Evaluation

An advantage of team-teaching is the continuous, soul-searching, evaluation of a course's success. (This may be the disadvantage, too.) The course is evaluated by students using the Franklin & Marshall "Student Perception of Teaching" instrument.. One measure of the course's success is that it has been oversubscribed every year it has been taught.
