HOME ABOUT DSEA TEACHING TIPS TRAINING AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT ... Writing Essays And Compositions Student Portfolios Planning Strategic Program Planning Strategic program planning may be your next logical step, especially if you are planning an effort that extends beyond a single classroom. This kind of planning involves inventorying your liabilities and assets. Obstacles And Challenges Every new undertaking has obstacles or challenges. List issues or problems which you feel might come up, or which need to be addressed. A sample list of thorny issues follows. Look over the list and try to identify 3 to 5 of the most important challenges or issues which must be addressed. After you review the three groups shown next (a to c) underline the three to five most pressing challenges you will face. Put then in order of difficulty. Starting with the least difficult challenge, get input from others or brainstorm alternatives for each problem. This does not mean you have to solve the issue, only that you need to be able to pose the problem and begin investigating your creative options or work-arounds. The program needs to have a leader or coordinator who is given some time off from classroom duties to get our portfolio project off the ground?.

Recommended Reading Please note that these documents are a work in progress! Items contained within this section are subject to change. Transition to Teach programs are designed for career changers who already hold bachelor's degrees in a content major related to a secondary teaching field, such as English or mathematics. Their purpose is to allow career changers to successfully enter the teaching profession in a timely fashion. These programs are most appropriate for those who already have a foundation of experiences in a P-12 or similar educational setting. They focus on the last four semesters of a professional education program, primarily on teaching methodology and student teaching. Each program consists of 18 credit hours of professional coursework. Purdue University Calumet will begin accepting applications for the T3 program in Summer 2002. However, due to the extensive admission process, the first cohort of T3 will not begin in coursework until Spring 2003. To be a part of the T3 program, candidates must commit to a continuous 16 months of coursework before eventual licensure. Therefore, the first cohort will be completing the program at the end of Spring 2004.

TEACHING PORTFOLIO A teaching portfolio is a 6 to 8 page document that summarizes your work as a teacher. It includes documents and materials which show the scope and quality of a professor's teaching performance. It is to teaching what lists of publications, grants, and honors are to research and scholarship. A typical table of contents for a portfolio prepared for evaluation purposes (promotion and tenure) might include the following: 1. Teaching Responsibilities 2. Statement of Teaching Philosophy 3. Teaching Methods, Strategies, Objectives 4. Student Ratings on Departmental Evaluation Forms 5. Colleague Evaluations From Those Who Have Observed Classroom Teaching or Reviewed Teaching Materials 6. Statement by the Department Chair Assessing the Professor's Teaching Contribution 7. Detailed, Representative Course Syllabi 8. Products of Teaching (Evidence of Student Learning) 9.

teaching technology in architecture introduction schedule curriculum contact ... alumni teachers INTRODUCTION For more than three decades, the Department of Architecture at the University of Oregon in Eugene has been in the forefront of teaching the integration of architectural design with building technology. This integration has been facilitated by our policy of having all faculty teach both design studios and subject courses. While most of our graduates are recognized as having a strong ability to combine design and technical issues in the process of building, perhaps the best measure of our success is the large number of our alumni who are currently teaching both design and technical subjects at universities world-wide . To make our approach to the integration of design and technology more widely available in a systematic way, we have initiated a program in Teaching Technical Subjects in Architecture, leading to a certificate in this area. The program should be of interest to those already teaching at the university or community college level, to architecture students anticipating a teaching career, or to practitioners who wish to gain perspective and academic experience that will benefit them if they wish to move into teaching. top SCHEDULE FALL QUARTER earn 12 credit hours in residence at the University of Oregon.

Teaching Portfolio Personal Background As Owen Meany proclaims, "IF YOU'RE LUCKY ENOUGH TO FIND A WAY OF LIFE YOU LOVE, YOU HAVE TO FIND THE COURAGE TO LIVE IT" (Irving 502). After five years of corporate employment, I found the courage to walk away from my developing career to start anew in graduate school. While my accomplishments at IBM had been many, my heart was not in my work. My desire to make a positive impact on the quality of peoples' lives necessitated a change; my loves of literature, film, and writing made becoming a humanities professor an obvious move. Although my move to literary studies was logical to me, such a move was counter to the logic of most graduate programs. My undergraduate degree had been a B.S. in Mathematical Sciences (with Computer Science concentration). Ironically, many of the same schools that touted the advantages of an interdisciplinary education restricted any change of discipline in their admissions policies. After overcoming these institutional barriers, I found my way into comparative literature and teaching. Despite the change of lifestyle and drastic change in income, the move has been immensely rewarding. And with the advent of more technology on campus, my technical background now has become a tremendous asset to my teaching. Currently, I have eight years (twenty-four sections) of teaching experience at the University of North Carolina, including courses taught in world literature, English literature, film, composition, business writing, Writing Across the Curriculum, and French. Two graduate courses in pedagogy, numerous teaching workshops, and a genuine affection for my endeavors have enabled me to make a substantial positive impact on my students.

Nathan William Scott Teaching Portfolio All of the teaching experience described below has been in classes at UWA. Teaching Experience I was a tutor in this course in 1989, 1990 and 1991, for up to 6 hours per week. Initially this course consisted of two parts: traditional engineering drawing using a drafting machine, and programming graphic operations in Pascal. In 1991 the course changed to emphasise freehand drawing as well as engineering sketching. The drawing classes had up to 100 students; the programming classes about 30. I distinguished myself to A/Prof. James Trevelyan, course coordinator, by my interest and ability in the subjects taught, and by developing some new ways to help students explore their freehand drawing abilities. Engineering 100 (Dynamics) Two tutorial hours a week during second semester. Four tutorial hours a week throughout the year. Four tutorial hours a week throughout the year; some lectures given. Up to ten hours a week as a tutor in a new computer-mediated tutorial environment; some lectures given. This tutorial environment is described in detail in the section on Innovation and is the subject of my PhD thesis. Class sizes in this environment are about 40, although many more were present at some times. Altogether this course had 270 students. One hour per week as a tutor in the computer tutorial room, with class sizes of about 50. Some lectures given. Also gave regular presentations in Prof. Stone's lectures.

TFs assist in courses under the supervision of those holding formal teaching appointments. Almost all graduate students serve as TFs while at Harvard. Teaching is an essential part of the career preferred by many graduate students, namely, university-level instruction. In addition, teaching at GSAS is an integral part of many students' financial aid package. Your duties as TF may include teaching sections, conducting tutorials, recommending grades, supervising independent study projects and monitoring students' progress toward their degrees. Teaching responsibilities vary from department to department and from course to course. In general, though, you are likely to be responsible for 10-20 students as part of a larger course, hold weekly discussions or laboratory sections, be available to answer questions, grade exams and papers, help assign course grades, and attend TF meetings. As a TF you will receive an Officer's ID card, the same status that faculty hold. With this, you will get some additional library privileges, entrance to the Faculty Club, and the ability to buy blue books not to mention the power to stop anyone riding a bicycle through Harvard Yard!

73. Preparing The Perfect Portfolio Sample student work Projects work great here of taking on the whole world onto youshoulders the first few years of teaching!). How do I organize my portfolio? http://www.iloveteaching.com/steacher/portfolio/

Preparing the Perfect Portfolio Here are common questions that education students ask when thinking about putting together a portfolio. Why Should I have a portfolio? Number one reason: Many administrators are now expecting them in interviews. You don't want to sit in an interview and have a blank face when you are asked for it. Reason # 2. A well done portfolio presents you and your teaching ability in a way the interview setting normally would not allow. Saying that you believe in alternative assessment is great, but showing some examples makes the point stronger! What does a portfolio have in it? I have a list of common things that are often put into portfolios for education majors, however, use you imagination. Anything goes, as long as it makes you look good! Table of Contents- This allows the reader to find specific information quickly. Copy of resume Make sure it is free of all spelling/ gramatical errors and on nice resume paper. Sample lesson plans - Ones you used during student teaching that you are particularly proud of. A unit you designed on your own would show ingenuity and might land you a job where there is no curriculum designed for it! (For example a good friend of mine got a job because she had prior experience with designing curriculum for a class and will now be teaching a class on Study Skills that is new to that school!) Copy of your transcripts - It does not necessarily have to be official ones if you had those sent to the school before hand.

I enjoyed the content, the curiosity about the fundamental operations of the universe. "Something deeply hidden had to be behind things." A. Einstein The physics department also gave me the opportunity to share this curiosity with other students through one-on-one tutoring. What they say is true - you really learn a subject when you engage in teaching it! I also developed a brief philosophy of physics pedagogy: To learn physics, you have to do physics.

WVU Faculty in 1897 Teaching Portfolios: In the past few years, an increasing number of schools have begun to ask for sample teaching materials from candidates. This usually happens after the first "cut" is made, when Hiring Committees are looking over a "short list" (usually 50+ candidates) to see who they want to interview at the MLA, but it can occur at any stage in the hiring process. In fact, sometimes local colleges will ask for a teaching portfolio when you apply for a one year visiting position. As such, even if you are some years away from the job market, you may want to start compiling materials now. The English Department has established a teaching portfolio process to help you with this, and, if a school requests such materials, the Department will send out your portfolio for you, thus establishing the credibility of the file (so schools will know that you didn't just make up all those glowing comments from students included in the typed comments from evaluations). How It Works: Whenever you're in the mood, go see Barbara Patterson and tell her you'd like to open a Teaching Portfolio. She will be happy to start a file for you, and she will duplicate any materials from your "Permanent Record" that you'd like to include in the Teaching Portfolio. Anything else you'd like to include can also be given to her, and she will send out the portfolio to schools that request one.

What Goes into a Teaching Portfolio? How do I prepare my portfolio? There is no formula for preparing a portfolio. Since a portfolio is an individualized product, no two portfolios will look alike. The Office of Faculty and TA Development (FTAD) has sample portfolios that have been produced by graduate students at Ohio State as well as sample portfolios by faculty from other institutions. These can be viewed at leisure. Samples can also be viewed by linking to Sample teaching portfolios. Consultants are available to work with graduate students and faculty on an individual basis on how to prepare a portfolio. For more information, call 292-3644 or e-mail a request to work with a teaching consultant at ftad@osu.edu What are some possible items to include in a portfolio? Here is a list of possible items to include in your portfolio. Some of the items are appropriate for personal improvement (formative), some for personnel decisions (summative), and some may just be of interest to you. For formative purposes (self-improvement), you should choose items that help you to:
