Abstract:
An IOTA (Instrument for the Observation of Teaching Activities) workshop was held at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in January 1974. Our objective was to improve instruction and IOTA appeared to be an objective instrument to assess present teaching activity. About one-third (33) of the teaching faculty of the College of Agriculture were invited to attend the workshop. Following the workshop and its evaluation, an ad hoc committee was appointed by the Dean of the College of Agriculture with the charge to design an implementation plan for IOTA and to involve additional faculty members. This paper is a report on the IOTA experience at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln since that workshop.
