The Rice Center provides a confidential and non-evaluative environment in which faculty can seek advice, mentorship, and feedback. We invite you to schedule a 1:1 meeting at any time. Additionally, if you would like direct feedback on your teaching, you can arrange to have a trained observer sit in on your course to provide insights and guidance. We offer multiple mechanisms for consultations and feedback:
Consultations with Rice Center Staff.
The Rice Center Staff is happy to meet with you to discuss any aspect of teaching and student learning. We offer informal and formal meetings, as well as course observations and feedback.
