Workshop – 'Creating e-Portfolios and an Online Presence'
As part of the "Preparing for Faculty Job Applications" workshop series, hosted by the UA's Office of Instruction and Assessment, this workshop will focus on the importance of creating e-portfolios and an online presence.
Building and maintaining a professional online presence is becoming a necessity for an academic career. Part of an academic identity is a cohesive and comprehensive professional portfolio, which often includes a teaching philosophy statement, a representative sample of instructional materials, research materials and evidence of teaching effectiveness. In this workshop, we will discuss the purpose and characteristics of an effective professional portfolio, and strategies for an engaging portfolio design, and we will share examples of online portfolios.
