Peer Evaluation for Online Teaching
Webinar Overview
Peer evaluation of teaching is an important aspect of quality improvement for educators and may be required for faculty retention and promotion. Since resources for peer evaluation of classroom teaching at schools can be ineffective for assessing online teaching, a more appropriate tool is needed. During this Webinar, viewers will learn the process of developing a peer evaluation form for online teaching.
