few years thenumber of faculty using the method has grown and some will find it a wonderful means toincrease student learning by modifying the feedback loop. They are designed to give instructorsauthentic, rich insights and information on student learning issues they can effectively use tosynthesize external formative feedback. Such feedback can then be used by students to assessand monitor progress and overcome learning issues. The feedback also offers importantopportunities for instructors to reflect on their own beliefs and practice and catalyze change tostudents' learning opportunities and their classroom experience.Instructor B: I have used two different methods now to automate collection of muddy points.Three years ago I began using the

The planning committee, led by co-chairs Lynn Albers (Multi),Micah Lande (ERM), and Bala Maheswaren (EPP), met regularly and decided to revisit the eighttopics previously prepared for 2020. The committee combined the eight topics into four andplanned a two-part ITH whereby the first half involved a roundtable discussion of the four topicsand the second half was led by a team conducting an NSF-funded study on ProfessionalDevelopment for Faculty. The two-part format worked well and the use of a two-minute video tointroduce the four topics for Part 1 was well received [4]. The same
