The teaching dossier (or portfolio) is widely used by university academic staff to document their teaching skills and responsibilities and to provide evidence of the quality of their teaching practice. In many faculties and departments at AV俱乐部, candidates for appointment, re-appointment, tenure, or promotion are required to submit a teaching dossier as part of their application. In addition, faculty and graduate students may be preparing a dossier for job applications. Beyond these purposes, the act of compiling a dossier requires university teachers to closely examine their teaching practice鈥攁n exercise that can help to identify strengths and challenges and guide plans for teaching enhancement and innovation. This workshop series will provide you with opportunities to think and talk about your approaches to teaching and learning and will outline how to present your ideas and experiences to best effect in the context of a teaching dossier. Particular emphasis a! nd attention will be paid to conceptualizing and writing a teaching philosophy.

A follow-up workshop will take place on Thursday, May 29 from 9:00 am to noon.
