Abstract
Transparency in Teaching and Learning (TILT) is a valuable tool that can be used to enhance student learning and performance as well as to enhance instructor teaching experience. In a STEM core field like chemistry, clarity in assignment instructions is needed, and TILT can be very useful in this. In fact, not many examples from the higher education field are available for reference for instructors who want to utilize TILT in their classrooms. The authors aim to fill this gap by giving examples of TILTed assignments in a variety of settings such as lab experiments, data analysis reports, class presentations, and assignments in both lower and upper level chemistry courses given at two public and private 4-year colleges in United Sates. Grade distributions and student responses are used to gauge the success of incorporating TILT into the courses.
