Teaching Philosophy Workshop
A statement of teaching philosophy is an essential opening for most teaching dossiers: and it signals the central beliefs and practices that the rest of the dossier will demonstrate. This workshop will take participants through a variety of strategies for crafting an effective and authentic statement, after we look at examples from across disciplines. This is a writing-intensive session, so come ready to respond to a number of prompts. Participants will leave with a sound basic structure for starting or updating their teaching statements.
