Abstract

If you are an active instructor, you should have a teaching philosophy. This document is a sort of "mission statement" that articulates what is most important to you as an instructor. With a teaching philosophy in hand, you can evaluate every opportunity – or challenge – in light of your goals and what you believe in.
