    Letters of recommendation are a genre of writing that require reflection and transparency but are often riddled with bias and unintentionally discriminatory language.

    Learning Activities of IU Bloomington Students: Report of an Online Survey
    (2004) Kurz, Lisa; Perry, David; Smith, Ray
    This study attempts to determine what IUB undergraduates do and how much of it they do when they are academically engaged outside the classroom. We created an online survey and asked a random sample of IUB undergraduates to complete it, indicating what learning activities they engage in outside the classroom, how much time they spend on each activity, how they manage their time outside of class, and what factors interfere with their academic engagement. The results were analyzed both for the entire sample, and for various demographic subsets of the sample.

    A rubric for scoring teaching philosophy statements
    (Journal on Excellence in College Teaching, 2010-03-19) O'Loughlin, Valerie Dean; Braun, Mark; Subino Sullivan, Carol; Kearns, Katherine D.
    The authors created a valid and reliable teaching statement scoring rubric to investigate and document the progression of graduate student instructors as scholarly teachers. Using the rubric, they detected significant positive changes between students’ draft and final teaching statements, particularly in criteria related to describing teaching methods and student assessment methods and in explaining those methods with respect to learning goals. However, student writing about teaching assessment methods remained unchanged. Unlike self-assessment writing tools, this rubric can be useful for faculty mentors and instructional consultants who wish to quantify the scholarly progression of writers and modify mentoring practice accordingly.
