Data-Guided Faculty Development Planning University of Alabama Birmingham September 11, 2012 Shelley A. Chapman, PhD
Plan for this Session • Helping underperforming teachers • Strategic Use of IDEA for Planning Faculty Development • Customizing for School/College purposes
Reflective Practice using Individual Reports Suggest new ideas to try Help them use the FIF well Invite Conversations Help them interpret Individual reports Help them use IDEA resources that are keyed to reports
Recommended:Diagnostic Form More data Specific suggested action steps based on research IDEA resources (no cost) are keyed to reports
Research Based Relationship: Teaching Methods to Learning Objectives
I. Individual Faculty 1. Individual Consultations • Faculty Information Form • How to select objectives • Adjusted and Converted scores • Suggested Actions
2. Help them Learn How to Log their Results on the Faculty Worksheet
Reflective Practice using Individual Reports Suggest new ideas to try Help them use the FIF well Invite Conversations Help them interpret Individual reports Help them use IDEA resources that are keyed to reports
Suggested Action Steps from Page 3 3. Help them to make connections #16 #18 #19

4. Encourage “Conversations” about IDEA • Coffee and Conversations • Paired Discussions • Brown Bag Lunch/Supper Conversations • Testimonials at End-of-year Faculty Meetings • Classroom “Visitations” or “Observations”

Encourage the Use of the IDEA Help Community Search for information Ask specific questions Talk to other clients who use IDEA Share ideas about how to use IDEA
II. Groups of Faculty 1. Workshops (Sample Topics) • Incorporating IDEA into a Syllabus • How to Select “Important” or “Essential” Objectives • Encouraging High Response Rates • Interpreting Reports (Adjusted & Converted Scores, Contextual data, etc.) • How to get better ratings: Focus on learning • How to use POD IDEA Center Notes
2. Use IDEA for feedback on Faculty Development “Courses” • Example: Faculty Summer Institute at PLNU Using IDEA for Faculty Development at Point Loma Nazarene University tile
Using IDEA for Faculty Development at Point Loma Nazarene University Integrating IDEA with the TILE Program tile
Model the Good Use of IDEA tile • Consult IDEA research for planning TILE activities • Correlation Studies • Relationship between Methods and Learning Objectives • Relationship between Methods and Global Items (Excellence of Course and Excellence of Teacher)
Relationship of Teaching Methods to Learning Objectives Use Proactively to Plan Faculty Development Learning Activities tile
Relationship of Teaching Methods to Global Items Use Proactively to Plan Faculty Development Learning Activities tile
Learning Objectives tile • How to select “important” or “essential” IDEA objectives related to the course • Use the Teaching Goals Inventory to help select objectives: Use the Three Guiding Questions • Is this a significant part of the course? • Do you do something specific to help students accomplish this objective? • Is progress on it part of their grade?
Incorporating IDEA into Syllabus tile • Show examples of how faculty put IDEA Objectives in their syllabi with their specific course objectives. Example: My three objectives are for you to • learn to analyze and critically evaluate ideas, arguments, and points of view. • • To do this, you will be reading and critiquing scholarly articles and participating in class discussions. • develop skill in expressing yourself in writing. • • To do this, you will propose a written research project in APA format. • learn how to find and use resources. • • To do this, you will use scholarly books and articles for your research proposal.

Week 3: CATs and Midterm Feedback tile Think about your IDEA objectives and create a midterm evaluation just for yourself. Ask questions that get at whether they feel they are making progress on the types of objectives you said are relevant.
IDEA Response Rates tile • Talk about ways to boost response rates: • Can’t “set it and forget it” • Create a culture of reflective practice • Show sample report • Put objectives is syllabus • Talk about how you use student feedback • Explain its reciprocal value
End-of-TILE Assessment • Administer the Diagnostic Form to participants • Instructors use the FIF in a way to assess team teaching tile
What learning are we targeting? IDEA Learning Objectives
What learning are we targeting? IDEA Learning Objectives
Do Students’ report of learning meet our expectations? Objective 1: Gaining factual knowledge (terminology, classifications, methods, trends) GSR, Pages 5 and 6
Which Teaching Methods Should We Target for Improvement? % of Classes Where Method was “Infrequently” Used
Overall Progress Ratings (Courses) Page 3 Percent of Classes at or Above the IDEA database Average
Relationship of Teaching Methods to Global Items Plan workshops to target needs
Other Considerations • Consider sending faculty to the IDEA User Group Meeting to do presentations • Consider becoming a member of POD and joining these conversations on the international level • Design a Faculty Development Day around some of these ideas
