This video describes how to prepare for a pre-observation meeting in the context of a formative peer review of teaching. Topics include establishing confidentiality and inviting the person being reviewed (reviewee) to carefully consider her/his goals for the review. We also discuss logistics and materials you may want to include to help inform the review and conversation.

This video is part of a series aimed to help reviewers and reviewees who are participating in the formative peer review of teaching. The primary goal of formative peer review is to develop and enhance teaching practice. Formative peer review provides instructors with information they can use to grow professionally in their teaching.  

This video for anyone who is new to doing peer reviews of teaching in post-secondary institutions or who may need a reminder of what to do.
