2. Sample Size (N = 669) Students from 2009 TI faculty (n = 368) Students from non-TI faculty (n = 301)

3. The assessments in this course seem to get at the things that we were learning. t (667) = 5.98, p <.001, r = .23

4. My instructor was clear in his or her class presentations. t (667) = 7.17, p <.001, r = .27

5. The instructor used a variety of assignments to help me to learn the material. t (667) = 3.67, p <.001, r = .14

6. I found the assignments in this class to be particularly suited to the way I learn. t (667) = 4.37, p <.001, r = .17

7. My instructor was clear in the presentation of the class objectives. t (667) = 5.11, p <.001, r = .19

8. My instructor used classroom activities that helped me to engage with the material we were learning. t (667) = 7.87, p <.001, r = .29

9. Overall, I was satisfied with this class. t (667) = 4.82, p <.001, r = .18

10. Overall, I learned a lot in this class. t (667) = 1.86, p = .03, r = .07
