Synopsis

Assembled and written under the auspices of the Professional and Organizational Development (POD) Network in Higher Education, this book is a fundamental resource for faculty developers, as well as for faculty and administrators interested in promoting and sustaining faculty development within their institution. It is based on POD's classic volume. "A Handbook for New Practitioners", this new book offers up to date and relevant information on a range of faculty development topics, including: setting up a faculty development program by examining organizational options, program types, and ten principles of good practice in creating and sustaining teaching and learning centers; assessing teaching practices: the evaluation process, individual consultation, classroom observation, and small group instructional diagnosis; practical strategies to consider in promoting a faculty development program, staging successful workshops, producing newsletters, using technology, and creating a positive classroom climate; and, reaching specific audiences such as department chairs and poor teachers. It also offers information on: using problem based learning; addressing diversity issues in the classroom, implementing multicultural faculty development activities, and including lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered people; and how to establish a successful faculty development committee.
