Opis

Describes strategies through which faculty can document and -go public- with their teaching--be it for purposes of improvement or evaluation. Each of nine chapters features a different strategy--from the fairly simple, low-risk -teaching circle, - to -course portfolios, - to more formal departmental occasions such as faculty hiring--with reports by faculty who have actually tried each strategy, guidelines for good practice, and an annotated list of resources.
