When applying for faculty positions with teaching responsibilities, an increasing expectation in institutions with a focus on undergraduate education is that applicants will have a collection of evidence of their experiences related to teaching and learning.

This workshop will address ways to think about experiences related to teaching, and how to document these for the job search.
