Abstract

Teaching Squares is a technique which was developed in 2001, is now used at numerous universities worldwide, and is aimed at informing and improving teaching [1]. It uses a process of classroom observation combined with personal and group reflection, while being free from the pressure of peer observations typically performed for the purpose of evaluation. For the initial trial of this technique at Nazarbayev University, three groups of four professors each (3 squares) were selected from across the university. We report the experience of our square.
