Description

You’ve written papers, proposals, abstracts, and presentations that describe your research plans and accomplishments—but what about your teaching? As part of the tenure and promotion process faculty are asked to write a self-assessment that includes not only their goals and accomplishments as a scholar, but also as a teacher. How do you craft a persuasive narrative about your effectiveness as a teacher? In this session, FDC staff will share ideas for writing compellingly about your teaching, including what kinds of evidence best support your claims. A light snack is provided.
