Evaluating Dental Students’ Preferences Of The Current Assessment Methods Used In Dental Education And Their Impact On Learning Approaches, Hanadi Alenezi

Deep approach to learning was significantly …

Forced Options : Faculty Identity Development And Institutional Culture, Eileen Kogl Camfield Jan 2012

Forced Options : Faculty Identity Development And Institutional Culture, Eileen Kogl Camfield

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Many faculty enter the professoriate with high ideals. They have identity conceptions of themselves as potential change-agents, expanding human knowledge and contributing to the greater good. Over time, for many, this idealism fades and is replaced with job dissatisfaction and bitterness. This study uses intersectionality as a theoretical frame to explore faculty identity development by examining the ways academic socialization into a competitive, hierarchical system privileges certain aspects of an individual's identity while imperiling others. In presenting data based on hour-long qualitative interviews with six mid-career university faculty members in the social sciences or humanities, the specific mechanisms that trigger …
