Teaching, Advising & Mentoring
Resources for my students and for junior faculty. The advising and mentoring notes below grew out of my own teaching at Colorado College and out of a 2017 CeMENT mentoring workshop for women economists at liberal arts institutions.
For students
- Senior Thesis — resources, examples, and writing guides for economics thesis students.
- Academic Advising — course planning.
- Considering an Economics PhD? — preparing for an economics PhD, pre-doctoral fellowships, and jobs in economics and international development.
Mentoring junior faculty
Notes from the CeMENT mentoring workshop, organized by theme:
- Mentoring: Teaching — building a teaching persona, diagnosing classroom problems, and building a narrative for tenure.
- Mentoring: Publishing — selecting projects and co-authors, submitting, and managing your research workflow.
- Mentoring: Networking — internal and external networking, conferences, and using social media well.
- Mentoring: Tenure — understanding expectations, documenting feedback, and choosing external reviewers.
- Mentoring: Balance — family, students, productivity, and saying no.
