Faculty Development Symposium

August 5, 12 and 19 September 9             Tuesdays at 1 pm Eastern

Free to subscribers and members; fee to others. 

Why is faculty development such a low priority at colleges and universities - even in these times of such rapid growth in the number of attractive new options that faculty might use to improve teaching and learning with technology?  Is Faculty Development an "unfunded mandate?"

These are the preparatory questions we've asked our invited guest presenters:

What has worked well for you in the past 5 years?
What has been disappointing to you in the past 5 years?
What do you hope to be doing in the next 2 to 5 years?

We have invited you in part because we believe that some of your important work has already contributed in some valuable ways to some of the following themes that underlie the TLT Groups interests in faculty development and faculty support:

  • Collaboration across boundaries

  • Diversity among students and faculty

  • Productive assessment and evaluation

  • Compassionate Pioneering

We've chosen to call this series a "Symposium" because we want to encourage both our invited presenters and all participants to share ideas, information, resources, recommendations, and ask questions.  We will also be raising some specific questions about the TLT Group's plans for online and hybrid faculty development and professional development activities during this academic year.  We look forward to learning a lot about how we should shape our future activities.  We hope to do so by learning from the questions you ask, the needs you describe, and the resources you recommend.
