Teaching Portfolio Guidance

Participants are required to develop an electronic teaching portfolio that includes evidence of their teaching experiences, preceptor and student evaluations, narrative self-assessments, and documentation of their personal teaching philosophy. The teaching portfolios will be reviewed and formal feedback will be provided by experienced educators.

Final portfolios are due by May 15th.

Frequently Asked Questions:

  1. Do I have to use a website or can I use a filesharing site?

    1. Website (not filesharing site) – there are many free options (Wix, Weebly, etc.)

  2. Do I have to do a reflection for each teaching experience?

    1. Yes, however, if similar (entire course facilitation, case conference), you can lump and do a reflection which includes growth and areas for improvement throughout the entire experience.

  3. What if I don’t have all of my teaching completed by May 15?

    1. Please reach out to Amy Sheehan (hecka@purdue.edu) to ask for an extension. Within that email, include when you anticipate having all teaching experiences completed and an estimated date for portfolio submission.

  4. How and when will I get feedback?

    1. Feedback will be received via email through Qualtrics. It will not be the best formatted email, but will include quantitative and qualitative feedback from your reviewer. We ask for feedback to be completed by early June.

  5. What if I never receive feedback?

    1. Please reach out to Amy Sheehan (hecka@purdue.edu) if nothing received by June 7th.

  6. What do you get for successfully completing the teaching requirements and teaching portfolio?

    1. Participants will be emailed a teaching certificate (PDF) by the end of June and will also receive 20 hours of continuing education hours.

In addition to the final portfolio, a midpoint evaluation completed by mentor has to be submitted via the electronic form (https://purdue.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0HBGnZlx7wXj8MK) by the mentor by January 15th. Participants should share their teaching philosophy, past teaching experiences, feedback, reflections, and upcoming teaching with their mentor prior to the submission.
