A post-observation form with guiding questions ensures that peer-observers follow a standardizedprocess. Faculty members also ask their own questions to the peer-observer(s). The discussioninvolves sharing notes and comments with the instructor, highlighting the positive aspects of theinstructions, and providing suggestions to further improve the quality of teaching.

For the purpose of this study “peer mentoring” andsubsequently “peer mentor(s)” will refer to year 2-6 students who lead first-year students in pre-college engineering camps, serve as Supplemental Instructors in historically challenging coursesin engineering, conduct community outreach events, and assist first-year students withscheduling their courses [6].

support diverse studentsappropriately. Faculty should be engaged in supporting these diverse students beyond theirteaching role, including academic advising, coaching and mentoring, social status checks, andmore. Furthermore, faculty involved in these roles should be supported and rewarded, as theywould be for other important campus initiatives. Nonetheless, there are some challenges with thisapproach since research has shown that women and minority faculty typically already have aheavier service load and more diversity responsibilities than do their peers.
