Models of peer observation of teaching

The Higher Education Academy in the UK has identified a range of developmental models of peer observation of teaching used in higher education. These, and further resources on peer observation of teaching can be located in the Peer Observation of Teaching Resources section of the website. Three examples are featured here for you to download:

Teaching Process Recall

Peer Pairing

Sharing Excellence

We also recommend the article 'Models of Peer Observation of Teaching' by David Gosling, 2002

You can also visit the Higher Education Academy Education Subject Centre (ESCALATE) http://www.escalate.ac.uk/ which presents models involving external sampling and panels. It also seeks to bring together and synthesise common guidance and advice for developmental purposes.
