Many academic employers require a teaching philosophy statement as part of the application process. In this interactive session, we will discuss research on hiring committees’ use of teaching philosophy statements, examine sample philosophies, and work through activities designed to help participants start writing their own statement. 

 

This workshop may be less helpful to those seeking feedback on a draft of their teaching philosophy. For those who have previously attended a teaching philosophy workshop and who would like to get feedback from peers on a draft, please see Revising Your Teaching Philosophy (2/21).
