The Student Observer Program/ LTC Fellows

May 10, 2016
By Fred Hagstrom, LTC Director

We have had a program that brings trained students into classes to offer feedback on teaching since the late 1970s, long before we had the LTC.  The students take the responsibilities of this job very seriously.  They have been great to work with.  In general, the program is a bit underused.  But that has been different this year.  Maybe it was this particular group of students, but a number of faculty members have made significant use of the program.  The feedback they have given me about the helpfulness of the students has been very encouraging.  This is something that is not highly visible about the LTC, but it was fun to work with these students, and gratifying to see the program grow in effectiveness.
