Good Teaching: A Matter Of Living The Mystery, Parker J. Palmer Jan 1992

Good Teaching: A Matter Of Living The Mystery, Parker J. Palmer

Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education: Archives

Good teaching cannot be equated with technique. It comes from the integrity of the teacher, from his or her relation to the subject or the student, from the capricious chemistry of it all. The author muses about how to give voice to the questions the students won’t ask but which probably lie on the cutting edge of their learning.

Academic Culture: The Hidden Curriculum, Maurianne Adams

Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education: Archives

There is an unspoken, unacknowledged set of cultural norms which govern the conduct of the players in the academy. When non-traditional students enter the academy, they may inadvertently run afoul of those norms. By recognizing them ourselves, we may be able to make the experience of these students a better one.

Whatever Happened To The Faculty?, Jack H. Schuster

Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education: Archives

Once assumed to be an enclave of like-minded scholars, the academy is becoming more and more segmented. The demographics of the students are changing as are those of the faculty. What will be the impact of those changes on the face of the academy in the next decade and beyond?

So Much Content, So Little Time, Marilla D. Svinicki

Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education: Archives

The universal complaint of faculty is that there is too much content to cover in the time allotted. Rather than complaining, perhaps we should re- examine how we go about choosing the content to include in a course. We might find we have more than we really need.

Impediments To Teaching A Culturally Diverse Undergraduate Population, Barbara Solomon

Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education: Archives

There are many societal factors within and outside the academy with which we must contend to help each student reach his or her potential. Most of all we must learn to recognize when the differences we see arise from the student, his cultural background, or the fact that he is, after all, a human being with much in common with all human beings.

The Silurian Of Central Kentucky, U.S.A.: Stratigraphy, Palaeoenvironments And Palaeoecology, Charles E. Mason, F. R. Ettensohn, C. E. Andrews

Faculty Research at Morehead State University

Silurian rocks in Kentucky are exposed on the eastern and western flanks of the Cincinnati Arch, a large-wavelength cratonic structure separating the Appalachian foreland basin from the intracratonic Illinois Basin. The Cincinnati Arch area experienced uplift during latest Ordovician-early Silurian time, so that the exposed Silurian section is relatively thin due to onlap and post-Silurian erosional truncation on the arch.
