-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Contents FACET Application - Basic Guidelines for Preparing the FACET Application Alternative or Unconventional Documentation Return to top FACET Application - Guidelines for Preparing the FACET Application Candidates and peer reviewers should consider the selection criteria carefully in preparing their materials for submission. They may also consult the rating form used in the campus and statewide selection processes. Some faculty may find that this format is difficult to use due to the nature of their teaching assignments, e.g., clinical faculty, librarians, and faculty in the performing arts. If you feel that the recommended structure is too restrictive to illustrate your teaching strengths, you may adopt an alternative form (see the section on Alternative or Unconventional Documentation below). The overall dossier contains the following elements that serve to establish a strong case for successful nomination. Each of these will be described in greater detail below. The candidate provides items 1 through 6: Items 2 - 5 are typically in a single pdf file (see file naming conventions below). The Peer Reviewers submit their letters directly to FACET.
File Naming Convention: All portions of the application MUST be emailed as pdf files with the exception of the cover sheet. The individual components are cover sheet, dossier, Curriculum Vitae, and two peer reviewer letters of recommendation. The files are emailed to facet@iupui.edu using the following naming conventions.
For example, candidate Smith with peer reviewer Einstein would have a cover sheet file named "Smithcover. doc" and a peer reviewer file named "Smith-Einstein-PR.pdf", as well as a dossier and cv file and another peer reviewer file. The dashes are required simple hyphens between names. Five total documents are emailed to the FACET office at facet@iupui.edu. Documents can be created as Word files, and converted to and saved as pdf files using the print dialog box. Any problems with file conventions or transfer should be directed to the FACET Office at 317-274-5647 or email facet@iupui.edu. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alternative or Unconventional Documentation: Many faculty members have teaching duties that do not occur in traditional classrooms settings. These include, but are not limited to librarians, faculty in the professional schools, faculty with clinical appointments, faculty in the fine or performing arts, and faculty who teach online or through other multimedia systems. Faculty members in these categories may find that the standard application format limits their ability to document their excellence in teaching. FACET welcomes such faculty members to document their cases in an alternate format. In developing their alternate applications, candidates must keep in mind the overall goal of the selection process: to identify IU faculty members who are dedicated to and recognized for excellence in college teaching and learning.
Note that ALL candidates must provide two letters that include peer review of their teaching. The observations need not have been in a classroom setting, however, the letter writers must have had enough experience of the candidate's teaching to provide an appropriate review. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
