Why do we do what we do?

We are a College of Education in a Research I institution that strives to link research and teaching.


Goals for Students

1. Graduate teaching assistants (GTA) will be knowledgeable about current theories and research on teaching (Handbook of Research on Teaching, Fourth Edition)

2. GTAs will be reflective practitioners in the art and science of teaching

3. GTAs will incorporate technology appropriately in their teaching.

Doctoral Student Reflection

As a doctoral candidate in Instructional Design and Technology, I was prepared to address issues of institutionalized exclusion with regard to the teaching of technology with preservice teachers as a graduate teaching assistant. In working with future teachers, it was important to address their own experiences with technology and how it might positively or negatively impact the students in their classrooms.


How Do We Know?

Assessment Tools

International Doctoral Student Survey

SEI Forms

Cohort Model - Peer Collaboration

How Are Students Evaluated?

Graduate teaching assistants are evaluated by their students (SEI) as well as by their Faculty Adviser

There are regular (weekly) collaborations between faculty instructors and graduate teaching assistants

Student Work Samples (U. of Oregon Model)

International Doctoral Student Survey
Our survey was approved by our Institutional Review Board in May 2005. All international doctoral students within the college received an email requesting that they voluntarily participate in the survey.

Unanswered Questions

How do we insure commonality across many different program areas i.e (technology, higher education, and special education) in terms of pedagogy and assessment.

Topic of Discussion

Our program will be discussing the Scholarship of Teaching with a focus on meeting the diverse needs of students within the doctoral program.

Request For Feedback

We would like feedback on valid ways of assessing our work with teachers.
