Depending on the purpose of your teaching portfolio, it may benefit to include a brief context statement. This may include contextual information about the university, the course and the broad demographics of the students you teach and how that informs your approach to teaching (University of Newcastle)
Your philosophy statement should cover areas such as:
Why teaching is important to you.
Your understanding of how your students learn.
What your role as a teacher is in facilitating student learning.
How your approach to teaching supports the learning process (considering the cognitive and affective domains and the development of higher order thinking).
How you go about determining whether your approach is achieving its objectives.
How your philosophy on teaching is informed by the University's teaching and learning policies.
