New Publication: Rethinking the Teaching Philosophy Statement with BYTE

The teaching philosophy statement is more than a painful, bureaucratic exercise or an uncomfortable hurdle to jump over when preparing for every application, annual review, or promotion.

In "Teaching Excellence Plus: The Teaching Philosophy Statement as Creative Platform for Strategic Self-Promotion," Miranda Rodak & I flip the script by connecting promotion with self-promotion and centering educator's creativity, agency, and voice in the TPS writing process.

We are excited for a key piece of our BYTE (Branding Your Teaching Excellence) faculty development framework to be included in an outstanding new publication for teaching-focused faculty.

Documenting Teaching Excellence: Promoting the University’s Vital Mission, edited by Karin deJonge-Kannan & Travis N Thurston, is open-access & available now.
