Module 13 (Week 13): Summary

Summary

Upon completion of Module 13 (Week 13), you should have completed a peer-review of the paragraph a classmate wrote for their personal statement, scheduled a date and time to meet with your faculty supervisor to review their assessment of your performance as a UTA, and started working on your self assessment.

Takeaways

  • Conducting peer reviews is a valuable process. It can help the recipient recognize how their work is perceived by others and what they can do to improve. Similarly, it can provide insight and generate ideas for how to improve your own work.
  • Thoughtful evaluations take time, so ensuring that all parties have sufficient lead time is important.
  • Completing a self evaluation of your performance is a good way to assess the progress you have made and the areas you would like to focus on for future development.

Next Week

Remember when I scheduled a double class period earlier in the semester? You will get to take advantage of that next week when there will be no class or new assignments to complete to make up for the double class earlier in the semester. Hopefully, this will make your Thanksgiving holiday that much better!

Wishing each of you a great little break filled with good food and the other special things you enjoy at this time of the year.
