Faculty Testimonial

The instructional design team at HCC is phenomenal! The semester ended and I was ** left ** feeling a bit disappointed in the classes I was giving. I've been teaching for more than 20 years but for some reason, at the end of every class, it seemed like the students were ** left ** with a lot of questions and didn't feel sure about what they were learning. When I got my IDEA scores at the end of the semester I got some really awful scores. I was so discouraged that despite my experience and hard work, my scores were ** below ** the HCC average. That's when I got in touch with Mike. We reviewed my IDEA scores and he helped me see that some of the metrics weren't really related to my class and that in fact, they didn't even affect my overall score. In addition to that, he gave me some great strategies for engaging my students through active lecture and discussion techniques. I was able to use these ** right ** away in the next semester. My IDEA scores this semester were so much better and my students seem more engaged and interested in the content.
