This self-prepared report describes activities engaged upon in a 12-month period between June 1st and May 31st.
The Wilmington College Faculty Handbook provides that faculty will submit self-evaluation materials to the Academic Dean/Dean of the Faculty and the Area Coordinator on a regular schedule. The self-evaluation gives faculty members an opportunity to play an active role in their evaluation by providing the foundation upon which all judgments and recommendations for future development will be made. The self-evaluation focuses on four areas: general College requirements, teaching effectiveness and student development, professional development and College/community service. Please describe your activities, evaluate your effectiveness, and identify your expectations in each area.
- Teaching, Instructional Development, Student Development
In a narrative intended for self-reflection, please comment upon your teaching experience during the year. You may make reference to new and continuing courses, methods, literature or technologies as well as efforts to improve pedagogical skills, attendance at teaching workshops, and how classroom visitations have influenced your teaching practices and course design. Consider your class preparation, classroom performance and interaction with students.
Optional Course Materials: If sample course materials such as handouts and assignments are submitted, please limit to two of each.
