SGER Proposal: Building an Evaluative Foundation for Just-in-Time Teaching

这是一项小额赠款的建议，以利用广泛传播的教学创新（即时教学或JiTT），但实施速度迅速超过理论规范，系统评估和原则验证，以指导在不同背景下的最佳使用。 创新是让JiTT学生以电子方式回应精心构建的基于网络的作业，这些作业在上课前不久到期（热身），教师“及时”审查，以调整课堂教学/学习，以满足学生的需求。 教师对这些信息的回顾的结果是围绕这些学生的反应来规划和实施反馈丰富的交互式课堂课程，以取代传统的讲座。 项目的主要目标是：1）以理论上一致的方式巩固，组织和分析目前可用的关于JiTT有效性的证据; 2）为个别JiTT项目的总结性和形成性评估制定设计原则; 3）建立一个社区范围的（即，JiTT项目社区）共同期望将评估嵌入项目的文化。

This is a proposal for a small grant to take advantage of an instructional innovation (Just-in-Time-Teaching or JiTT) that is widely spread but where implementation has rapidly outpaced theoretical specification, systematic evaluation, and validation of principles to guide optimal use in different contexts. The innovation is having JiTT students respond electronically to carefully constructed web-based assignments due shortly before class (Warm Ups) that the instructor reviews "just-in-time" to adjust the classroom teaching/learning to diagnosed student needs. The result of the instructor's review of this information is the planning and implementation of feedback-rich interactive classroom sessions built around these student responses replacing the traditional lecture. The major project goals are: 1) to consolidate, organize, and analyze the currently available evidence on JiTT's effectiveness, in a theoretically coherent way; 2) to produce design principles for summative and formative evaluation of individual JiTT projects; and 3) to build a community-wide (i.e., JiTT community of projects) culture of shared expectations for embedding evaluation in projects.
