“I have used FARPET both as a peer observer and as the educator receiving the evaluation. It is an easy to use, well developed and validated instrument and I learn something new every time I have an opportunity to engage with it.

Whether you have years of experience or are new to teaching, evaluations with this instrument gives you specific and valuable feedback that will inform your practice as an educator and help you achieve the student-centered learning environment that we are all striving for!”
