Teaching Portfolio Use in the Absence of Institutional Support.
Liston, Delores D.; Hansman, Catherine A.; Kenney, Stephanie L.; Breton, Cherry C.
Journal on Excellence in College Teaching, v9 n1 p121-34 1998
After preparing their own teaching portfolios, four Georgia Southern University instructors designed a study to investigate what happens when neither follow-up workshops nor mentoring are provided by the institution. Results indicate that without institutional support, especially mentoring, faculty use teaching portfolios primarily for tenure and promotion rather than for improving teaching. (Author/MSE)
