Celebrate & Reflect on Teaching with Colleagues!  

Do you want to connect more with colleagues, become more deliberate in reflecting on your teaching, and gain new motivation and inspiration for your classrooms?  

Come find out what the buzz is all about. We will offer an overview of the program, time commitment, and some insight from previous participants at CapU.  

About Teaching Triangles 

The Teaching Triangles program gives faculty a chance to gain new insight into their teaching through a non-evaluative process of classroom observation and self-reflection. The program’s four cornerstones are reciprocity and shared responsibility, appreciation, self-referential reflections, and mutual respect. 

 A Teaching Triangle consists of three faculty members who, in a mutually supportive and respectful manner, will:  

• Observe at least one class taught by each Triangle partner (online or in-person) 

• Reflect on the class observation experience  

• Share reflections with Triangle partners  

• Share general reflections and observations with all participants at the end  

Teaching Triangles are meant to spur personal reflection rather than peer evaluation. The program offers guidance and a gentle structure. This ensures that participants focus their conversations on what they’ve learned about their own teaching from the observation process and avoid commenting directly on their colleagues’ performance.
