ABSTRACT

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.
