title: Developing a teaching portfolio.
abstract: Teaching portfolios--a compilation of carefully selected materials that describe the faculty member's teaching activities in the classroom, clinical practice, and other settings--are being used more widely for documenting teaching effectiveness in nursing education programs. The purpose of the teaching portfolio is to document the full range of teaching competencies of the faculty member over a period of time. This article describes teaching portfolios and their uses in nursing education, items to include in a portfolio, and how to develop a portfolio.
