Employ the technologies of PowerPoint and a web editor to create a brief presentation and an online vita. Begin the process of focusing their own research agendas. Develop a time-management plan encompassing the research, teaching and service requirements of academic life. Recognize the responsibility of the faculty member in service to society, the community, the profession, the university, the school, and the department. All teaching grows out of the teacher's personal and professional values which lead to assumptions and ultimately to teaching practices.
Students often spend most of a semester trying to decipher a faculty member's unstated assumptions.
Clarifying those assumptions in advance might be useful in focusing the intellectual energies of both the teacher and the students. The following items form the basis for evaluation in the course and, although judged separately, contribute to a composite grade. The student is expected to prepare the necessary documents according to the specific criteria and to use all readings, class discussions, labs, as a resource for this document. All students are required to provide critical feedback to the performing teacher. Students are required to demonstrate competence in the use of technological tools for the development of faculty and teaching materials.
