​Peer Reflective Studio 5: Developing your Teaching Dossier

In this studio about Developing Teaching Dossier, We would like to have a conversation about reflecting on one’s own teaching and the role of peer review in enriching that reflection. How do we really benefit from peer review? What forms of peer review are more helpful? How can we articulate best the effect of our experiences of peer review in our teaching dossier? And finally, I would like to discuss how we can approach teaching as a collective experience that we share not only with our students but also with our fellow teacher colleagues.
