Abstract

The Peer Feedback on Teaching Rubric was developed to support health professions educators in assessing their teaching. It provides a rubric of meaningful feedback to individuals to make improvements in learning and engagement. The rubric can be used to evaluate both in-person and online lectures.

Educators can use the rubric in three ways:

  • For self-reflection to assess their own teaching
  • To observe a master teacher to identify important teaching techniques and see how they are effectively implemented
  • To receive peer feedback by having a fellow educator evaluate a live teaching session
