Each of the following inventories presents a unique perspective to explore your perceptions about your teaching practice.
Set aside about 20 – 30 minutes to complete each free inventory and explore the feedback.
Teaching Goals Inventory
Angelo and Cross designed the Teaching Goals Inventory to help instructors articulate teaching values or the goals for a specific course. This is a self-scoring online tool. There are 52 goals you assess to what you deliberately aim to have your students accomplish (not what you feel is a worthy goal).
