Faculty Development Program

This three-day faculty development program is being conducted to familiarize the new UP Manila faculty with the philosophy and mandate of the university, the privileges, roles, and responsibilities of its employees, and the teaching-learning setting. Basic principles in outcome based education and the elements of an instructional design will be discussed. Participants will reflect on their own preferred teaching styles and will develop a course design that is aligned with the university's mission, vision and goals and consistent with their own teaching philosophy and style.

As excellent teaching results in excellent student outcomes, a faculty development program aims for excellence through continuous quality improvement of teaching.
