Research findings in a defined historical specialty — write and submit for peer-reviewed publication in disciplinary journals or edited volumes.
Examination instruments for survey and upper-division courses — compile, administer, and grade with attention to validity and alignment with course learning outcomes.
Emerging scholarship and methodological developments — track through regular journal reading and colleague consultation to keep course content current.
Electronic mail and calendar software — use to coordinate office hours, advise undergraduate students, and manage course-related communications efficiently.
Grade records and institutional reporting requirements — administer and submit within required timelines using university student information systems.
