I like to informally ask my students about halfway through a course what they like and don't like about the course. It doesn't take much more than 10 minutes: I give groups of 3-4 students a single piece of A4 that I divide into four sections (positives, negatives, suggestions for improvement, other comments).

It's always insightful. And not just for me: They often realise that they disagree on some things (e.g., too much or too little of something, too slow or too fast, etc.) and they frequently suggest things that are easy to implement, but can really improve things. And so I've just set up a collaborative document to collect useful shortcuts and a glossary of important #Rstats functions which I've called "Class Cheatsheet". #HigherEd #teaching

I found this posted on the wall at the university where I teach. I love when students have a weird sense of humor like this.
