Developing Different Forms of Student Feedback to Promote Teacher Reflection: A 10-Year Collaboration
Hoban, Garry; Hastings, Geoff
Teaching & Teacher Education: An International Journal of Research and Studies, v22 n8 p1006-1019 Nov 2006
This paper describes a 10-year collaboration between a teacher educator and a high-school science teacher as they investigated different ways to gather student feedback to enhance teacher reflection. Four different procedures were developed during this time: (i) interviews by a teacher educator with students; (ii) learning logs written by students; (iii) observation schedules completed by students; and (iv) a survey completed by students and teachers. Of the four procedures, the most meaningful for teacher reflection was the student interviews because they were the most personal. However, other procedures for gathering student feedback may be more useful to initiate teacher reflection because they are less confronting.
