Reflections on Effective Teaching: Strategies for Evaluating and Improving Your Practice

Reflections on Effective Teaching: Strategies for Evaluating and Improving Your Practice

This session will examine the research regarding effective teaching and what the best teachers do to have a positive impact on student learning and continue to learn and grow. What characteristics distinguish an exemplary teacher from one who is not yet there? What strategies do the best teachers routinely use in their teaching? What knowledge, understanding, and skills do all teachers need to be effective and how can I determine what my next steps might be to enhance my teaching practice? These questions and more will be discussed while we use a variety of activities to explore what great teachers do so we might set new goals for self-improvement.
