Teaching Goals Inventory 
(click on the title to access the inventory) 

The Teaching Goals Inventory (TGI) is a self-assessment of instructional goals. Its purpose is threefold: (1) to help college teachers become more aware of what they want to accomplish in individual courses; (2) to help faculty locate Classroom Assessment Techniques they can adapt and use to assess how well they are achieving their teaching and learning goals; and (3) to provide a starting point for discussion of teaching and learning goals among colleagues.

College and University teachers might find it helpful to complete the TGI when they are:

• Developing a new course
• Revising a course
• Writing or re-writing their philosophy of teaching
• Participating in a curriculum review

Try out the Teaching Goals Inventory (above) and share your insights with the emerging Teaching/Learning Community (TLC) at UW-Superior.
