[Notes]
*We have already held training programs for creating a TP Chart in many parts of the country, but we are planning to assess the effects of the programs once again. For the participants, we would like to ask for their cooperation to respond to our questionnaires.
*Sixty people will be accepted in the order of application.
*”4 Networking session” is a free session. Please bring drinks and snacks on your own.
[For your information]
“Interactive Teaching” Forum: Part 1 “Revisiting How to Create a Syllabus” is to be held on the following day of the workshop. Creating a syllabus equals designing a course. Why not reconsider a syllabus as not just paperwork but a tool to realize better learning? Anyone can join the forum. We look forward to your application. For more details, please refer to the following website.
[Description of the workshop on the creation of a TP Chart]
A Teaching Portfolio refers to “A carefully selected reflective document about teaching supported by various evidence.”
Its basic structure is as follows:
-Teaching responsibility (What you are doing)
-Philosophy (Why you are doing)
-Methodology (How you are doing)
-Outcome (How it came out)
-Goals (What you will do next)
It is a process to specify the “core” of your teaching through “reflection” and “dialogue.”
A Teaching Portfolio is a document consisting of 8–10 pages of body and evidence that supports the body. It has become common to use it as material to evaluate the quality of teaching activities from multiple angles in European and American countries. Essentially, it takes about three days to create a Teaching Portfolio, but this time, participants will create a “Teaching Portfolio Chart (TP Chart),” a simple version of a TP. A TP Chart is a single worksheet, which enables you to reflect on your teaching activities step by step just like a Teaching Portfolio. There are various training programs for instructors these days, but what is becoming important is the “mindset” toward education, not “techniques.” A TP Chart can be a powerful tool for making such an approach. We would like more people to experience creating a TP Chart.
If you are interested in joining the workshop, please apply from here so that we can prepare the material for the event. We look forward to your application.
