Teaching Squares is a peer observation program that allows faculty, instructors, and GTAs to observe each other in action, learn from each other, and support each other in their quest to become better teachers. It is designed to be a non-evaluative, supportive, and growth-based process. Participants are coached in setting a personal teaching goal using the Teaching Effectiveness Framework and then observe others to give feedback and reflect on their own practice. Teaching Squares is about a 16-hour commitment over the course of the semester.
