The author should be left free to act for him/herself on using the information,depending on the situation. If the author has received multiple reviews, for example, theymay give conflicting advice. Or, the author may not have the necessary background orsufficient time to make involved changes suggested by a reviewer.Good feedback provides the amount of information that the author can use, rather thanthe amount that the reviewer would like to give. A reviewer who gets carried awaydescribing what (s)he knows about the topic may overload the author with moreinformation than can easily be used. Voluminous

innovationsaddressed in SFIP. This statistical analysis is relevant because if it could be proven that thesefactors do not have statistical significance (after they have been averaged), then the surveyresults would suggest that faculty variation might be less of an influence on outcomes than somepeople might think. The statistical analysis was set up as a “Hypothesis test on means of normal distribution –variance unknown” using Student’s t-test [24]. The test was performed on the means of all sevenquestions in the survey. The results of the 2012, 2013 and 2014 SFIP groups were categorized asthe “population mean (μ0)” while the results of the 2015 SFIP group were categorized as “samplemean (X)” and “sample standard deviation (S)”.

The last category is about howpeople deal with the outside world. Do they prefer to get things decided (Judging (J)) or stayopen to new information and options (Perceiving (P))? When the preference in each category isrecorded, the personality type is expressed as a code with four letters, one from each of the fourcategories. That leads to sixteen different personality types.

preventstudents from finding out answers from those who took the exam earlier. But, if sectionsare taught back to back, the danger is minimized. If out-of-class common exams arescheduled, it is eliminated. Then a single exam can be used, which will save severalhours in creating the exam, and save grading time as well, due to lower startup overhead.Reason #4: Less web site/LMS overhead. Teaching one class means only one course website, and only one course to set up in a learning management system. The sameassignments, grade weights and policies apply to all sections.Reason #5: Fewer meetings of course staff. In most courses, it’s necessary to meet withTA(s) once a week, and this meeting may last an hour. In multi-section courses, a singlemeeting
