Abstract
Teaching Squares is a technique which was developed in 2001, is now used at numerous
universities worldwide, and is aimed at informing and improving teaching [1]. It uses a process of
classroom observation combined with personal and group reflection, while being free from the pressure of
peer observations typically performed for the purpose of evaluation. For the initial trial of this technique
at Nazarbayev University, three groups of four professors each (3 squares) were selected from across the
university. We report the experience of our square.
