This paper reports on a grogram, SCOT, for improving teaching with input from students. Since the requirement for Faculty Development (FD) was introduced by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) in 2007 for graduate programs and 2008 for undergraduate programs, most universities have implemented various FD programs. Teachers' peer observation of classes is one of the initiatives seen at many universities. However, there is one thing lacking: students' engagement. SCOT is a program developed and implemented in some universities in America with the idea of supporting teachers to improve their teaching from the learners' perspectives. We will introduce the training and the consultation process of SCOT at Shibaura Institute of Technology (SIT).
