Teaching Experience
Your account of your teaching experience sets the context for the rest of your portfolio. You should include the full title of the courses you have taught (together with a short description if the course content is not immediately clear from the title), the level of each course, the institution at which each course was taught, the number of students enrolled in each course, and the number of times you have taught each course. If you have taught one course several times, consider making the portfolio or a part of the portfolio into a narrative account of how you have improved the course. You might also choose to discuss factors such as the number of advanced/introductory courses that you have taught, whether the courses were required or optional, and whether the students were majors or non-majors.
