Instructor Spotlight: Dave Toback
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. 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.”
