Student Course Evaluations

These graphs present student evaluations of my teaching in all courses that I have finished teaching at Harvard to date. Students rate teachers in these categories on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the highest. Harvard benchmarks vary depending upon the type of course and department. Hence I have included them for each course for comparison. Student response rates range from 55 to 100% of those enrolled in the course.

The Harvard University Certificate of Distinction in Teaching is awarded to any teacher whose overall evaluation is 4.5 or above. I have received this certificate for my seminar on the History of News and my work in the Colloquium on Teaching Practices, History Sophomore Tutorial, United Nations: A Global History, Germany and the World: 1600-2000, and World War II. I have also completed the Derek Bok Center Teaching Certificate Program at Harvard.
