Book excerpt: Excerpt from Faculty Preparation and Orientation: Proceedings of a Regional Conference, Sponsored by the New England Board of Higher Education, February 11-12, 1960, Boston, Massachusetts The other speakers and panelists likewise were selected because they were men who had something to say that went well beyond the conventional formulations. We were indeed fortunate that these able men agreed to participate in this conference and give us the benefit of their considerable wisdom. The staff and the conference participants are all deeply indebted to these speakers and wish to take this opportunity publicly to acknowledge the debt and express their deep appreciation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explored new faculty satisfaction with participation in a professional development orientation program at a New England-based graduate-level, military institution of higher education. The new faculty orientation program had not been previously explored. The purpose of this study was to describe participant satisfaction with an ultimate goal of program improvement. ^ Certain applied research fields, such as war gaming, lack a supporting academic infrastructure to prepare faculty before arrival. New faculty in the war gaming department studied, rely on professional development, including orientation, to acquire the necessary knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed for success. ^ Research questions focused on orientation program participant satisfaction and improvement recommendations. Responding to faculty needs is a key role of professional development (Sorcinelli, Austin, Eddy, & Beach, 2008). The study applied the Adult Learning Model for Faculty Development (Lawler & King, 2000) as a guiding framework. ^ This study employed a mixed methods, descriptive design, with a sequential explanatory strategy. The quantitative phase used survey questionnaires to gather descriptions of participant satisfaction, subsequently used to inform development of the qualitative phase's standardized interview script. The study focused on two cohorts (N = 9) in one department, at one institution, with no purpose of generalizability. However, using the principle of proximal similarity (Campbell, 1986), comparable institutions may find portions of this study relevant. Sources of bias include the researcher, while not the creator of the orientation program studied, serves as the studied department's professional development coordinator. ^ Findings included identification of the need for a capstone integrating activity, easier access to professional development materials, and desire for a mentoring program. Recommendations include: (1) refinement to the process for explaining new faculty expectations; (2) initiation of a mentoring program; (3) creation of a comprehensive war gaming process description to frame and guide professional development programming, including the new faculty orientation program curriculum; (4) creation and incorporation of a integrating, experiential orientation program activity; and (5) improvement of the organization and access to professional development materials.

Book excerpt: The definitive career guide for grad students, adjuncts, post-docs and anyone else eager to get tenure or turn their Ph.D. into their ideal job Each year tens of thousands of students will, after years of hard work and enormous amounts of money, earn their Ph.D. And each year only a small percentage of them will land a job that justifies and rewards their investment. For every comfortably tenured professor or well-paid former academic, there are countless underpaid and overworked adjuncts, and many more who simply give up in frustration. Those who do make it share an important asset that separates them from the pack: they have a plan. They understand exactly what they need to do to set themselves up for success. They know what really moves the needle in academic job searches, how to avoid the all-too-common mistakes that sink so many of their peers, and how to decide when to point their Ph.D. toward other, non-academic options. Karen Kelsky has made it her mission to help readers join the select few who get the most out of their Ph.D. As a former tenured professor and department head who oversaw numerous academic job searches, she knows from experience exactly what gets an academic applicant a job. And as the creator of the popular and widely respected advice site The Professor is In, she has helped countless Ph.D.’s turn themselves into stronger applicants and land their dream careers. Now, for the first time ever, Karen has poured all her best advice into a single handy guide that addresses the most important issues facing any Ph.D., including: -When, where, and what to publish -Writing a foolproof grant application -Cultivating references and crafting the perfect CV -Acing the job talk and campus interview -Avoiding the adjunct trap -Making the leap to nonacademic work, when the time is right The Professor Is In addresses all of these issues, and many more.

Download or read book Preparing Teachers for Deeper Learning written by Linda Darling-Hammond and published by Harvard Education Press. This book was released on 2021-02-08 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preparing Teachers for Deeper Learning answers an urgent call for teachers who educate children from diverse backgrounds to meet the demands of a changing world. In today’s knowledge economy, teachers must prioritize problem-solving ability, adaptability, critical thinking, and the development of interpersonal and collaborative skills over rote memorization and the passive transmission of knowledge. Authors Linda Darling-Hammond and Jeannie Oakes and their colleagues examine what this means for teacher preparation and showcase the work of programs that are educating for deeper learning, equity, and social justice. Guided by the growing knowledge base in the science of learning and development, the book examines teacher preparation programs at Alverno College, Bank Street College of Education, High Tech High’s Intern Program, Montclair State University, San Francisco Teacher Residency, Trinity University, and University of Colorado Denver. These seven programs share a common understanding of how people learn that shape similar innovative practices. With vivid examples of teaching for deeper learning in coursework and classrooms; interviews with faculty, school partners, and novice teachers; surveys of teacher candidates and graduates; and analyses of curriculum and practices, Preparing Teachers for Deeper Learning depicts transformative forms of teaching and teacher preparation that honor and expand all students’ abilities, knowledges, and experiences, and reaffirm the promise of educating for a better world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by the director and staff of the first, and one of the largest, teaching centers in American higher education – the University of Michigan’s Center for Research on Learning and Teaching (CRLT) – this book offers a unique perspective on the strategies for making a teaching center integral to an institution’s educational mission. It presents a comprehensive vision for running a wide range of related programs, and provides faculty developers elsewhere with ideas and material to prompt reflection on the management and practices of their centers – whatever their size – and on how best to create a culture of teaching on their campuses. Given that only about a fifth of all U.S. postsecondary institutions have a teaching center, this book also offers a wealth of ideas and models for those administrators who are considering the development of new centers on their campuses.Topics covered include:• The role of the director, budgetary strategies, and operational principles• Strategies for using evaluation to enhance and grow a teaching center• Relationships with center constituencies: faculty, provost, deans, and department chairs• Engagement with curricular reform and assessment• Strengthening diversity through faculty development• Engaging faculty in effective use of instructional technology• Using student feedback for instructional improvement• Using action research to improve teaching and learning• Incorporating role play and theatre in faculty development• Developing graduate students as consultants• Preparing future faculty for teaching• The challenges of faculty development at a research universityIn the concluding chapter, to provide additional context about the issues that teaching centers face today, twenty experienced center directors who operate in similar environments share their main challenges, and the strategies they have developed to overcome them through innovative programming and careful management of their resources. Their contributions fall into four broad categories: institutional-level challenges, engaging faculty and students and supporting engaged pedagogy, discipline-specific programming, and programming to address specific instructor career stages.
