Weimer's Recommendations for Self-Reflection


I’ve been struggling to root out the tools discussed by Weimer in chapter 3.

The Learning and Study Skills Inventory by Weinstein, Shulte, and Palmer is owned by H&H Publishing, and is not available without cost.

Likewise, the Perceptions, Expectations, Emotions andKnowledge about college inventory (PEEK) by Weinstein, Palmer, and Hanson is also owned by H&H Publishing.

The Classroom Work Style Inventory by Kinsella and Sherack only returns a citation from Learner-Centered Teaching when googled, so it’s a total loss.

Fortunately, I had a bit of success with the other two tools.

I located the paper referenced on the Deep or Surface Learning Tool by Biggs, Kember, and Leung.  The assessment itself is included as an appendix at the end of the paper.

For the Active Learning Inventory by Fleming and Mills, I found both a copy of the paper as referenced, and what I believe to be an updated web tool of the questionnaire, that I thought provided interesting results.


Please post other student self-reflection tools that you like or have used as a comment.  Possibly we could generate a list for the class at some point?
