Center for Faculty Innovation

Interested in learning how your students are experiencing your course and exploring ways to make those experiences more equitable, more engaging, and more supportive? Join the JMU Ascend Faculty Learning Community and use the Ascend data-driving professional learning program to collect student survey feedback, reflect on select teaching improvement, and find out how it influences the student's experience.

We will meet three times over the course of the semester where we will:

  • Learn about the program and our community and set up times to survey our students about 1 month into our courses (First meeting),
  • Review the student experiences in our courses and discuss potential teaching improvements as well as plan times to survey students near the end of the semester (Second meeting), and
  • Discuss teaching changes made, how they were implemented, and how they were perceived by students (Third Meeting).

Partnered with Student Success & Enrollment Analytics
