Webinar Series

Feedback Culture in Higher Education

Feedback culture refers to the practices, attitudes, and systems surrounding the giving and receiving of feedback within academic institutions. It includes both formal and informal feedback mechanisms that aim to support student learning, enhance teaching effectiveness, and foster institutional success.


In Explorance’s Feedback Culture webinar series, higher education leaders from top universities discuss key themes such as Implicit Bias, Holistic Evaluations, and AI. Our aim is to enrich the ongoing discourse on feedback cultures, offering valuable insights and strategies for creating thriving academic environments.

Episode 2

Redefining Teaching Effectiveness with Holistic Evaluation Methods

Colleges and universities have traditionally relied on a single data point in student evaluations, a perspective that cannot adequately describe the complete extent of inclusive and effective teaching practices.

Join this webinar with guests speakers from Northwestern University and Dalhousie University to explore the innovative ways to evaluate teaching effectiveness beyond traditional student evaluations, and how a more holistic approach can mitigate implicit bias and create a comprehensive overview of teaching excellence.
