In addition,we are designing a multi-pronged feedback system that will help instructors reflect on their teaching andreceive the support they need in order to improve their teaching continuously. Our new evaluation systemwill consist of three main parts: student impressions, self-reflections, and peer observations.In the summer of 2022, our school was awarded a grant through AAU to participate in their AAU STEMDepartment Project on Teaching Evaluation.

The student-based evaluation of teaching isknown to have several limitations and hence cannot be the sole basis for instructor evaluation.Peer observation, self-reflection, and assessment of teaching portfolios can be employed asholistic evaluation practices.

A totalof nine instructors started the program, but six continued during the entire year and ended withsuccessful results.

One way in which it canbe effective for faculty to acclimate is by doing small implementations through micromoments.Micromoments are rapid and easy active learning implementations that encourage students’learning.

Yet concerns persist about the nature and effectiveness of teachingevaluation.Over the past five years, Brigham Young University has developed a process built on the conceptthat peer review can be an effective tool for the evaluation of teaching just like it is for theevaluation of scholarship.

reflection is the idea that communities ofpractice tend to form more often in a workplace environment than in formal school education [5].Many of the members of our group are faculty with significant teaching loads, who practice amore traditional kind of knowledge transfer within our classes each week. When it is then ourown turn to seek out new knowledge, we instead choose an informal, collaborativecommunication format. While it is outside of the scope of this paper, there is a fair amount tounpack about how, as older adults, we balance companionship as an equally important valuealong with knowledge gain. It is possible that more reflection is needed on the needs of ourstudents, and the potential exists to incorporate more companionship components

To support faculty in theseactivities, we created a set of 25 micromoment activities [16] that faculty could use immediatelyand easily adapt to the content at hand. Not only would these activities help faculty to be moreconfident in their teaching, but they would support pedagogical change and encourage morefrequent implementations. Students would also have more opportunities for engaging in learningexperiences to develop an entrepreneurial mindset [16].After implementing each micromoment activity, faculty completed a reflection and submitted toan online forum on Engineering Unleashed [17] to discuss the activity, how it went, and howthey can improve.

Theoretical Framework: Intercultural communication competenceICC is a crucial skill that researchers have been exploring for the last two decades. A review ofthe literature reveals a multitude of definitions of ICC [14]. This variability in the content ofICC models and dimensions presents several challenges. For this reason, Griffith and others[14] propose a framework and operational definition to serve as the basis for the developmentof the concept of ICC in higher education research. This operational definition is based onprior research and states that ICC “reflects a person’s capability to gather, interpret, and actupon these radically different cues to function

It should be considered a living document wherein thecontents can be expanded, techniques can be moved to other levels or removed altogether, etc.For example, there are no set rules on the amount of time spent on a Rank Order and how deepof a learning impact it may have on the students.
