  • Revealing Hidden Labor in Annual Review Materials: In this December 2020 session, Center for Teaching Excellence Director, Craig Owens, discusses ways faculty can make “hidden” labor more visible in the way they represent their work and accomplishments in the materials they put forward for review.
