observations and feedback from peer

mentors

We believe you’ll find these observations

and feedback extremely valuable. We

recognize some of you may not want to

be observed and so you have the option

to opt out of the program.

Watch for an email and

then respond ASAP

You are excellent researchers

Teaching-as-research lets you apply your

research skills in a new context. Instead of

the lab, archives, community, or coffee shop,

the research occurs in the classroom.

Goal: By midnight on June 19,

you’ll submit a proposal giving

title of your project

research question (what do you want to learn?)

experimental design and methods (how do you

want to do it?)

expected significance (why do you want to do

it?)

present state of knowledge (at least one

reference to what’s been done already)

resources required, if any

(Submit your proposal using a Google form linked to the SGTS blog.)

Goals for today

1. Tell the people about your project.

2. Give and get feedback, especially about

ethical / privacy / harm concerns:

your project cannot harm students’ success

there can be no repercussions for a student who

does not participate in voluntary tasks

Is the research question narrow enough that

you can accomplish something?
