Dr. Timothy Murphy Centre for Excellence in Learning and Teaching National University of Ireland Galway For all interested persons: I am currently working as a postgraduate researcher for the Centre for Excellence in Learning and Teaching at the National University of Ireland, Galway. In this capacity, I am currently working on a funded-research project that is reviewing the literature surrounding the potential of Teaching Portfolios for promotion and career development in higher education. An important aspect of the research project also involves a review about how best to encourage the Teaching Portfolio approach at research-led institutions. I suppose it brings up the whole research versus teaching debate. I guess I'm wondering if you might be aware of any potential sources that might be helpful toward informing such a consideration i.e. how to best to fit a teaching portfolio approach at research-led institutions of higher education, especially for considerations around promotion and tenure. Any thoughts or recommendations would be most welcome. I am also certainly very interested in any experience that you may have had with using the teaching portfolio for promotion and tenure in research-intensive universities. Appreciatively, Timothy Murphy __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
