The Course Success Self-Review combines a unique tool and website to help instructors and support staff transform the design and delivery of face-to-face, hybrid, and online courses – centering student learning and success. Using the self-review, instructors can reflect on a course and receive actionable advice and targeted resources in under an hour. A finalist for the 2022 POD Innovation Award, and a featured project in the EDUCAUSE 2022 Horizon Report Teaching and Learning Edition, the self-review enables instructors to better understand and address their own needs and challenges. With a focus on interaction, we’ll introduce the tool, website, and the comprehensive framework of recommendations. Join us to explore implications and applications of evidence gathered by the tool of instructor needs and priorities. See how the self-review can inform your own teaching or the development of similar resources to meet the needs of instructors.
