Appendix 2: Suggestions for Preparing Short Statement and Evidence for Expert Evaluators

Select substantiating materials for the dossier that most strongly supports your case in the area that you have chosen (see “Evidence of Teaching“). Answer the following questions about each piece of evidence that you select.

  • Why did you select this evidence?
  • What is its significance for your case?
  • How does it contribute to your department, the school, and/or your national or international stature in your field?

Your short statement (3-5 pages) should have a brief introduction (1-2 paragraphs at most) that states your chosen area of excellence and provides brief background and context. The bulk of the statement should present the evidence that you have chosen and address the questions above. It is helpful to embed links to the evidence in the statement. Conclude with a paragraph that summarizes and looks to the future.
