Instructor Spotlight: Demystifying the Cosmos for Non-science Majors

November 30, 2022

At Texas A&M, Dr. Dave Toback is demystifying the cosmos for non-science majors. The course focuses on mastery, using the feedback generated by peers in Peerceptiv to prepare students for future success in academia. Dr. David Toback is Professor of Physics and Astronomy using Peerceptiv's peer learning platform at Texas A&M University.

Dr. Toback encouraged a growth mindset for his over 280 students per semester using 4 essay assignments in Peerceptiv. Students provided feedback for their peers, internalizing course standards and thinking critically about course content. After receiving peer feedback, 1 in 4 resubmitted an assignment to improve their grade.

Read why Dr. Toback says Peerceptiv prepares students for “the real world.”
