VI. Analyzing and Improving Your Teaching

Of course, with that autonomy comes responsibility for our personal and professional growth. This section offers ideas to help you keep growing as an instructor, including ways to analyze and develop your perspective and skills as a teacher, to share ideas with colleagues, and to find out what your students really are learning and how you can better help them.
