Abstract

Recent trends in higher education such as distance education and student-centered learning have challenged instructors to evaluate and reevaluate their teaching practices and philosophies. Several instruments have been developed to help instructors describe their teaching philosophies and improve their instructional effectiveness through self-reflection; however these instruments are seldom mentioned or reported in the literature. These include the Approaches to Teaching Inventory, Teaching Perspectives Inventory, Teaching Goals Inventory and Teaching Styles Inventories. The aim of this review is to summarize what information these inventories provide teachers.
