Writing a Teaching Philosophy
For those who want to go on to a career as a professional anthropologist in academia, teaching is part of the job. University teaching usually begins at the student stage, as students studying for the PhD in anthropology often lead tutorials, and in later stages of study may teach their own seminars. When preparing credentials to apply for a teaching job at any level, it is always a good idea to prepare a statement of one's teaching philosophy. Below are some webpages that offer useful tutorials on preparing a Teaching Philosophy:
Washington University in St. Louis
The Chronicle of Higher Education
Stanford University (on preparing a Teaching Portfolio, which encompasses a Teaching Philosophy)
