Teaching Resources

About Our Resources

Good teaching is grounded in an iterative cycle of design and redesign that keeps your courses fresh and current. Use these teaching resources categories to help you with this process.

Teaching Effectiveness Framework

The UFA Academic Advisory Committee collaborated with CETL in designing a . The framework provides faculty members clarity on aspects of teaching to present and discuss in their portfolios. It also indicates areas where departments, schools, colleges, and the university need to provide support to help faculty members achieve excellence.

We recognize that many colleges are reviewing the way in which faculty evaluations are conducted. This framework could provide a foundation when determining what should be evaluated by mechanisms such as peer review, student evaluations, and the RPT portfolio. The framework does not change policies or requirements related to RPT. It simply establishes a common understanding of aspects of effective teaching and assists in developing a common language for its discussion. UFA approved the teaching effectiveness framework as a resource on September 15, 2021.
