The end of semester is a good time for you to do as you ask of your students: reflect upon your course and your delivery of the course. Taking time to consider successful and unsuccessful moments in the course can give you inspiration for making changes so the next time you offer the course you’ll be more confident and your students will have the opportunity to be more successful.

Course development is an ever-evolving process. We tweak and adjust for many reasons. Maybe we decide an activity didn’t quite work the way we intended, or we discover new content to share with students. Early planning can make the revision process more efficient and less stressful.
