Svinicki, former directer, Center for Teaching Effectiveness, University of Texas?Austin "This book is an essential and accessible work that touches upon the major issues facing not only faculty and faculty developers but also higher education as a whole and does so by putting these issues in a variety of institutional contexts, from research and comprehensive universities to small liberal arts and community colleges." ?Michael Reder, Director, Center for Teaching and Learning, Connecticut College "This indispensable book provides a concise look at the evolution of faculty development, an informed portrait of current campus practices, and an insightful view of promising future scenarios for the network development of this burgeoning field." ?W.

Synopsis
Efforts to support and enrich faculty work particularly in a changing context are critically important to faculty members, institutional leaders, and higher education itself. This book surveys faculty development from its beginnings, summarizes the challenges and pressures now facing developers and higher education as a whole, and proposes an agenda for the future of faculty development. Based on a study of nearly 500 faculty developers from all institutional types, this book offers a vision of what the field might become, addressing several key issues such as the structural variations among faculty development programs; the goals, purposes, and models that guide and influence program development; and the top challenges facing faculty members, institutions, and faculty development programs. Contents include: The Evolution of Faculty Development A Portrait of Current Faculty Development: Personnel and Programs Influences on Developers and Programs Current Issues Addressed by Faculty Development Services Future Priorities for Faculty Development Future Directions for Faculty Development: Open-Ended Responses Faculty Development in the Age of the Network, In recent years, new expectations of higher education from parents, employers, trustees, and government leaders have contributed to broad institutional changes. Recognizing that the quality of a university or college is closely related to that of its faculty members, many institutions have increased their efforts to support and enrich faculty work. Creating the Future of Faculty Development addresses this growing need for faculty development by exploring how faculty development has evolved and envisioning its future. Based on a study of nearly 500 faculty developers from all institution types, the book examines core issues such as the structural variations among faculty development programs; the goals, purposes, and models that guide and influence faculty program developments; and the top challenges facing faculty members, institutions, and their programs. Several key questions are addressed, including What are the structural variations among faculty development programs? What goals, purposes, and models guide and influence program development? What are the top challenges facing faculty members, institutions, and faculty development programs? What are potential new directions and visions for the field of faculty development? Creating the Future of Faculty Development summarizes the challenges and pressures now facing developers and higher education as a whole. In this book, readers will find reason to rethink how they approach, organize, and support faculty development as they engage in institutional planning for the future., In recent years, new expectations of higher education from parents, employers, trustees, and government leaders have contributed to broad institutional changes.
