Among one of the application documents for securing an academic position is the statement of a teaching philosophy. This document provides the hiring committee with an idea of the candidate’s teaching beliefs, values, and use of evidence-based teaching and assessment practices for effective instruction. This workshop will provide you with strategies for crafting your teaching philosophy statement and/or teaching professional development and mentoring experiencing with the help of a rubric. You will leave this session with a working draft of your teaching statement to motivate you to continue your efforts toward intentional and effective teaching and instruction.
