ABSTRACT

What sorts of quest ions may you be asked?

Many institutions have a standard pro forma which can be used in preparing for appraisal. Questions could include:

• What areas of your work do you feel you can associate with a sense of achievement? • What evidence can you supply to demonstrate your achievements (e.g. student evaluations,

comments from peer observations, reports from external assessors)? • What development activities proved particularly worthwhile, and how have you been able to

build upon these in your own work? • Which activities and goals that you had planned to undertake have fallen by the wayside? • What are the particular reasons for these unfulfilled aims? • What support have you received from your line manager and other colleagues during the period

under review?
