Coulter Faculty Commons facilitating a mid-semester course analysis with students.<\/p><\/div>\n

Faculty may now schedule Coulter Faculty Commons staff for a mid-semester course analysis for a fall course.<\/span><\/p>\n

The\u00a0Quick Course Diagnosis<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0(QCD) takes about 20 minutes and helps faculty better understand challenges their students are facing with content, pacing, performance, and student behavior.<\/span><\/p>\n

All fall 2020 QCDs will be conducted during a regularly scheduled class time which occurs in any video-conferencing software<\/strong> (Bb Collaborate, Microsoft Teams, or Zoom) during the weeks of September 21 – 25<\/strong>, and September 28 – October 3<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

For the fall 2020 term, we have capacity to visit 12 classes, and scheduling is first-come, first-serve.<\/span><\/p>\n

Faculty may schedule through a Qualtrics link<\/a>.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The process generates student insights about the course, teacher, and student behavior, ranging from observations\u00a0about testing, reading load, clarity of assignments,\u00a0accessibility of the professor, and even systematic issues that go beyond the individual classroom. It is no surprise that students usually know more than they let on and are very happy for the chance to contribute to the value of their learning experience.\u00a0Often their reports align with\u00a0hunches the professor already had, but now there is real data to work with and the CFC\u00a0can\u00a0partner with the faculty to develop creative solutions to\u00a0learning\u00a0challenges that are now clearly defined.<\/span><\/p>\n

This year, the Coulter Faculty Commons developed a video that explains the process more fully; it can shared with students ahead of time prior to the virtual class visit, so students understand what is expected.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
