Thank you for your interest in building community through peer observations! Please add your information below to be one of the first get updates about the The Peer Alliance for Classroom Excellence (PACE) program. PACE is an easy way for faculty to participate in small teams to get peer support and feedback on their teaching practices. Specifically, the goals of PACE are to:
- Promote student success by discussing practical and implementable evidence-based pedagogy.
- Adapt to the ever-evolving educational landscape by providing a space for structured peer feedback and pedagogical exploration.
- Connect faculty across campus by forming teaching teams as a community of practice.
- Expand upon teaching practices by training faculty in peer observation and consultation.
There are two participation tracks:
- In Track 1, faculty will informally chat about their courses, observe each other teaching, and provide supportive feedback. This is the track our FATE group participated in.
- In Track 2, faculty will use DTEI's Peer Observation Protocol to provide more structured collaborative feedback, fostering a supportive professional environment and promoting reflective teaching practices that are essential for enhancing student learning outcomes.
