In 1998 John Webster was selected by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching for inclusion in its first group of Carnegie Scholars, 15 post-secondary faculty from across the country brought together in the summer of 1998 to inaugurate the Carnegie Academy for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning. The group was the first of a series selected over the next few years; there now number more than 100 Carnegie Scholars at all levels and all kinds of institutions.
John’s chief focus in his Carnegie work has been Course Portfolios. Growing out of work done with the University of Washington’s Expository Writing Program, John has been working with Teaching Portfolios and Course Portfolios since 1990. John’s Course Portfolio for a class in the literature of the Elizabethan Age is posted on this website; a second Course Portfolio, Close-Reading Shakespeare, is web-published on the National Teaching and Learning Forum site.
As a Carnegie Scholar John Webster has visited a number of colleges and universities, and has given presentations at many conferences. For a complete list of Carnegie-connected seminar and conference presentations along with related publications, click here.
