* DCAL Teaching Statement Workshop - 2 parts *

DCAL Teaching Statement Workshop - 2 parts
Mondays August 15 & 22, noon-1:30pm
DCAL, 102 Baker Library

What is your teaching philosophy? If you don't know, come to the
Teaching Statement Workshop Series. Most academic institutions ask for
applicants for an assistant professor position to submit a teaching
statement/philosophy. Come find out how to articulate your philosophy in
a concise essay. In the first session we will discuss teaching
philosophies and what should go in your statement. During the second
session we will review each other's statements.

This is a 2-part workshop on on August 15 & 22. 
***Please register for both sessions!!!*** Thanks!
