22 TLH in Your Career
Faculty work goes beyond the important teaching we do in the classroom. TLH fellows are impacted not only as teachers, but as institutional leaders. Faculty fellows have gained experience:
- Designing curricula and innovative public programming
- Cultivating diversity and equity
- Expanding accessibility
- Producing digital communications
All of these skills support professional development and resonate with careers beyond the academy as well as with non-teaching positions within higher education.
Importantly, TLH encourages its leadership team and faculty fellows to publish their Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL), as you will see in the bibliography below.
TLH also prioritized recognizing the accomplishments of its fellows by sending formal letters to the leadership at their campuses (see the sample letter below). The TLH Executive Director sent fellows’ letters directly to their provosts and copied the faculty as well as the relevant department chairs and/or deans.
