Writing a Teaching Philosophy Presentation

Event Categories

As instructors in higher education, it is increasingly important to have an individual teaching philosophy when applying for college or university faculty positions or when undergoing promotion reviews. This presentation will give participants the opportunity to learn about best practices in creating a teaching philosophy. Specifically, this session will include:

  • An overview of the research on what potential employers are looking for in a Teaching Philosophy
  • An overview of the basic structure and central information that should be included
  • A look at sample teaching philosophies

    Please note that there are optional follow-up teaching philosophy workshops during which participants can write, revise, and solicit feedback on their teaching philosophies. You can register for these workshops on the TILT calendar.

    This session aligns with the “Classroom Climate” domain of the TILT Teaching Effectiveness Framework. It is open to all CSU faculty, postdocs, staff, and graduate students and is a required workshop for the Graduate Student Teaching Certificate of Completion.
