Eco-STEM Peer Observation Process

The main goal of the peer observation is to give feedback on the actual learning environment in the classroom and for the observed instructor to engage in a reflective process on their teaching.

The process is built around the three key aspects, Climate, Structure, and Vibrancy. Each of these aspects has five associated principles, which in turn has associated behaviors that can be observed in a classroom. The image below shows an example of classroom climate.

Example of a Key Indicator, its Associated Principles, and Observable Behavior for one of the principles.

A summary of the principles and behaviors can be found in the summary version of the observation tool.
