QA in Supporting Teaching and Learning (Part 1)
Each year schools and academic support units file a report to the Committee on Teaching and Learning Quality. For four consecutive years, the Library’s reports showing our services have been identified as exemplary in supporting teaching and learning.
As part 1, we share some of our Quality Assurance mechanisms, including evaluating sessions via online feedback forms, allowing instructors to immediately evaluate their teaching and student learning via one-minute paper and “muddiest point”. This allows them to improve teaching and also contact students to “close the loop”. Overall face-to-face session ratings from sampled mass LANG collaborations in 2018/19 averaged 81.87%. Feedback from CLE instructors was also very positive.
