Teaching Dossiers: How to get started

Are you writing a job or teaching award application and been asked to submit a dossier? Teaching dossiers, or portfolios, are a way to communicate your teaching abilities and goals for future teaching to your intended audience (yourself, peers, committee members). Dossiers are also a useful tool that you can use to improve your skills as a teacher through self-reflective practices.

This workshop will introduce you to the key components of a dossier and why starting a dossier early will help lead you to success in the years to come. You’ll also be supported in thinking about your teaching philosophy and provided with tips on how to start writing an effective teaching statement.
