Teaching Dossier

What is a Teaching Dossier?

A teaching dossier provides a rich description of a person's teaching views, approaches, experiences, and evaluations. The sections, include a biographical overview, teaching philosophy statement, teaching strategies, experiences, effectiveness (evaluations and feedback), professional development, scholarship, leadership, awards, sample syllabi and more. A teaching dossier is ever-evolving like a curriculum vitae or resume, however it is distinct as it focuses on current goals and relevant experiences and examples in teaching and learning within its typical 6-12 pages length.
