Practitioner Guides

Our Practitioner Guides summarize student perspectives on specific teaching practices using machine learning techniques and provide instructors with recommendations to better support student learning.

The UO Student Experience Surveys produce over 100,000 student comments each year about student learning experiences. The Practitioner Guides make the information in these surveys accessible to faculty and administrators by summarizing student perspectives on specific teaching practices and providing instructors with recommendations to better support student learning.
