3. Solicit feedback
After each class held at the University of Vermont’s new teaching kitchen, students fill out a survey about how they enjoyed the class and what their takeaways were. The survey also leaves space for students to suggest ideas for future classes at the Burlington, Vt., school. “We’re really getting the students engaged, and if they want to learn how to make pasta—which we heard three times this week, for example—then that’s definitely a class we’re going to incorporate because we know there’s a lot of interest behind it,” says campus dietitian and instructor Nicole Rohrig.
