Teaching at Wesleyan
Wesleyan is a wonderful place to teach with highly motivated and engaged students and supportive faculty. We value teaching and are actively involved in pedagogical innovation, working collaboratively with students to find new and interesting ways to learn and create.
This page contains links to some of the resources faculty can use to develop their pedagogy as well as links to innovative pedagogical practices.
- Wesleyan's Syllabus Template — Please use this template for your syllabi. It includes language about accessibility, honor code, etc. that should be on all Wesleyan syllabi.
- Gender Bias Assessment Tool — This resource allows for you to upload a syllabus and get an estimate of the percent of the file (syllabus, bibliography, etc.) has woman-authored.
- Inclusive Classroom Resources — Wesleyan is committed to building a community where everyone feels welcomed and valued. This page includes a number of resources to help you build an inclusive classroom.
- Funding to Support Teaching — Wesleyan has a number of in-house grants to support pedagogy.
