前年度(2024年度分)の点検・評価項目
|
|
●１．授業の方針や授業計画と実際の授業の内容及び授業目標の達成度
|
|
Last year, I strayed from my original teaching plans often because it was my first year at Shudo University and a lot didn't go as planned. However, this year, I was able to follow my original teaching plans much more closely, with minor changes throughout the semester. For example, last year, I realized that I was moving too slowly in some of my classes. I would spend too many weeks on one unit and students would get bored and I would struggle to find activities to do in class to fill the time. So, this year, I spend less time on each unit, I get through more of the textbook, it keeps the students on their toes, and I don't have to fill in time with as many activities. For another example, last year, when I conducted presentations in my classes, while the group or individual was presenting, the rest of the class would be bored with nothing to do. To fix this, I have tried several different approaches this year. I may have the rest of the class ask the presenters questions, which requires the class to listen to each presentation. I have also tried "peer evaluations", meaning groups will actually judge each others' presentation and grade each other. I have also done away with presentations all together in some cases, choosing to do a debate or a paper instead.

●２．（１）教育内容・方法の工夫
|
|
I think I will always have room for improvement because the perfect lesson plan isn't possible. However, I will continue to pursue improvement for as long as I teach. To help myself improve, I will continue doing what I have been, which is to keep records as to remember what methods worked and what didn't. I also would like to observe other teacher's classes, it is always refreshing to see how other teachers conduct their classes. I would also liked to continue going to education conferences so I can learn about different kinds of textbooks, teaching methods, and activities. Every time I go to a conference I learn something new and I usually adopt something for my classes.

●４．学生による本学の授業評価アンケートの実施、分析、結果の活用状況
|
|
I always provide a QR code and an explanation for student evaluations on the last day of class or on exam day. I always read the evaluations and I have taken them into account this year. Some students rightly pointed out that the class didn't follow the syllabus, I have tried to be more careful to follow my original syllabi this year and I have tried to be very clear about any changes I make in class throughout the semester.
|
●５．公開授業の実施状況
|
|
ビジネス英語Ⅳ_71を公開し、参観者は2人だった。英語Ⅱ（リーディング・ライティング）_13を公開し、参観者は1人だった。英語ディスカッションⅣ_71を公開し、参観者は1人だった。I simply opened my classes up to visitors during the allotted time period and my colleagues volunteered to observe.
|
●７．学生からの勉学（単位僅少学生への対応など）、生活、進路・就職などの相談への対応
|
|
After class and during my office hours and sometimes during class, I would talk to students about their goals and offer advice. Last year, students didn't know me well yet so I didn't have so many students approach me about such topics even though I made myself available. This year however, now that students know me better, I have been approached a lot more, especially regarding what they should do to prepare for study abroad and exchange programs. I have done conversation practice sessions during my office hours several times.

●９．学生の課外活動に対する支援（本学のサークルの部長・顧問としての活動）
|
|
I am not involved with any Shudo University official clubs or circles.
