Evaluating Teaching: A New Approach To An Old Problem, L. Dee Fink
Evaluating Teaching: A New Approach To An Old Problem, L. Dee Fink
To Improve the Academy: A Journal of Educational Development
The approach to evaluating the quality of teaching described in this chapter starts by developing a Model of Good Teaching. This model is then used to create a set of evaluation procedures based on four key dimensions of teaching: design of learning experiences, quality of teacher/student interactions, extent and quality of student learning, and teacher’s effort to improve over time. The challenges and benefits of using these procedures are discussed.
Faculty Development At Small And Liberal Arts Colleges, Kim M. Mooney, Michael Reder
Faculty Development At Small And Liberal Arts Colleges, Kim M. Mooney, Michael Reder
To Improve the Academy: A Journal of Educational Development
The notable growth of faculty development programs and centers at small institutions warrants attention before their next stages of growth. We aim to capture and convey the central issues coalescing around the professionalization of teaching and learning activities and the work of faculty developers at small colleges. While this descriptive review draws direct comparisons to other types of institutions, particularly large research and comprehensive universities that serve as the norm for our profession’s faculty development practices, its main purpose is to address the distinctive characteristics of professional development at small colleges in general and liberal arts colleges in particular. Toward …
Co-Teaching As A Faculty Development Model, Andrea L. Beach, Charles Henderson, Michael Famiano
Co-Teaching As A Faculty Development Model, Andrea L. Beach, Charles Henderson, Michael Famiano
To Improve the Academy: A Journal of Educational Development
Co-teaching is a promising and cost-effective approach to promoting fundamental research-based instructional change. In this chapter, we discuss the theoretical underpinnings of co-teaching and describe our initial experience with it. A new instructor (MF) co-taught with an instructor experienced in physics education research-based reforms (CH). An outsider (AB) conducted separate interviews with each instructor and observed several class sessions. Results include immediate use of research-based instructional practices by the new instructor and a significant change in teaching beliefs over time. Recommendations are made for implementing co-teaching as part of a faculty development program.
Assessment Of A Faculty Learning Community Program: Do Faculty Members Really Change?, Susan Polich
Assessment Of A Faculty Learning Community Program: Do Faculty Members Really Change?, Susan Polich
To Improve the Academy: A Journal of Educational Development
In this study, participants in a faculty learning community (FLC) program were followed to see if they had really changed their epistemological beliefs and teaching methods. Of the 39 FLC participants, 87% reported a change in their epistemological beliefs and 79% reported a change in their teaching methods. Seven participants were followed in-depth to determine if their reported changes actually occurred. Observations suggest that none of the seven appeared to have changed epistemological beliefs although all changed teaching methods. More importantly, the participants adopted their new pedagogy only when the pedagogy was aligned with their beliefs.
