Academic Development/ Teaching Portfolios

Teaching Portfolio Overview

Welcome to the Teaching Portfolio webpage - which we hope will be useful when you need to produce evidence about the quality of your teaching.

A Teaching Portfolio is intended to assist you to evaluate and document your teaching. It can also be used to provide evidence of quality of teaching.

It is concerned with the Scholarship of Teaching (Boyer, 1990) - which embraces the idea of sharing knowledge with peers, reflecting on teaching, making knowledge on teaching public, and gathering evidence of good practice in teaching.

Use the links above to learn more about teaching portfolios.
