- Summary:
- In order to assess the effectiveness and quality of teaching it is necessary to evaluate the learning experience of students receiving tuition. This short and practical handbook provides all those teaching in Higher Education & Further Education with an invaluable reference on how to develop and use a "toolkit" that is capable of exploring and assessing all the relevant aspects of their studentsb learning, in order to allow the tutor to develop their teaching. Avoiding a theoretical account of the subject, the authors present a readily usable guide to assessing the readerbs own teaching quality that will tie in with the needs of their institution quality guidelines, as well as likely wider developments, such as teaching quality assessment and continuing professional development guidelines from the ILT.Readership: Faculty development and teachers in higher and further education.
