Teaching portfolios act as a means of productively preparing for the job market and a successful academic career by developing a scholarly approach to teaching, fostering habits of reflection and ongoing improvement, and providing rich, contextualized evidence of teaching and learning.

• describe the purposes of teaching portfolios.
• identify components of a teaching portfolio.
• identify sources of evidence and data for inclusion in a teaching portfolio.
