Class Videotaping Program

The Class Videotaping Program gives instructors the opportunity to have one or more of their classes videotaped and have the tape reviewed with a professional teaching consultant.  This service operates independently of departments and schools. The taping and subsequent review is not used as part of any evaluation process. Participants can decide just to be videotaped, but most have found the consultation to be extremely valuable in providing objective and constructive feedback of their own teaching.

Videotaping can take place in the Kaufman Classroom for Instruction in Teaching (9-151) or in the regular classroom.

A Service Request Form can be filled out and sent online or printed and returned to TLL, Room 5-122.

Some comments from faculty on the Class Videotaping Program:

". . . [the consultant] gave me gentle suggestions, which I took to the classroom with me. . . . It improved my attitude and comfort level in class."

 “When you see yourself on the tape, it is very easy to identify mistakes you make. That is already helpful. When you consult with the teaching consultant, your strong points get identified as well, which is also very helpful."

"This is a good opportunity to see how one teaches from the audience's point of view."
