This qualitative study makes the case for the implementation of curriculum mapping, a procedure that creates a visual representation
of curriculum based on real time information, as a way to increase collaboration and collegiality in higher education. Through
the use of curriculum mapping, eleven faculty members in a western state university Teacher Licensure program aligned and
revised the teacher education curriculum across a sequence of courses. An increase in collaboration and collegiality among
faculty emerged as an unintended outcome as a result of participation in the project.

General experiences + race + racism = Work lives of Black faculty in postsecondary science education
Eileen R. C. Parsons Domonique L. Bulls Tonjua B. Freeman Malcolm B. Butler Mary M. Atwater 《Cultural Studies of Science Education》2018,13(2):371-394
Existent research indicates that postsecondary Black faculty members, who are sorely underrepresented in the academy especially in STEM fields, assume essential roles; chief among these roles is diversifying higher education. Their recruitment and retention become more challenging in light of research findings on work life for postsecondary faculty. Research has shown that postsecondary faculty members in general have become increasingly stressed and job satisfaction has declined with dissatisfaction with endeavors and work overload cited as major stressors. In addition to the stresses managed by higher education faculty at large, Black faculty must navigate diversity-related challenges. Illuminating and understanding their experiences can be instrumental in lessening stress and job dissatisfaction, outcomes that facilitate recruitment and retention. This study featured the experiences and perceptions of Black faculty in science education. This study, framed by critical race theory, examines two questions: What characterizes the work life of some Black faculty members who teach, research, and serve in science education? How are race and racism present in the experiences of these postsecondary Black faculty members? A phenomenological approach to the study situates the experiences of the Black participants as valid phenomena worthy of investigation, illuminates their experiences, and seeks to retain the authenticity of their voices. 相似文献

From a life course perspective, this article examines how an intergenerational sample of 20 African-American women in Chicago
describe and make meaning out of their struggles and advancements to make inroads into the principalship. Being born on opposite
sides of the Civil Rights Movement distinguishes markedly how these women perceive their experiences and share their stories
about their journey to become principals. In the face of woefully restricted professional opportunities, African-American
women born prior to the Civil Rights Movement portray their journey as a progression from conceding to “deferred dreams” to
fulfilling their “callings.” In contrast, African-American women born after the Civil Rights Movement view their journey as
one availing them to new horizons of professional opportunity. Their divergent reflections on the salience of race and gender
in the professional realm sheds light on the scholarly contention that the tradition of activist-leadership in African-American
education has waned in the 21st century.

The Influences of Faculty on Undergraduate Student Participation in Research and Creative Activities
Using data collected from surveys of college juniors and seniors and faculty members in related academic departments, this
study examined whether faculty teaching and research orientations, as well as faculty external funding, had any impact on
undergraduate student participation in research and creative activities. The results of the study indicated that faculty research
orientation and external funding were indeed positively related to student participation in research activities. However,
faculty members’ teaching orientation was not significant. Further analyses indicated that faculty teaching and research orientations
had different impacts on a range of research and creative activities by undergraduate students. The findings from this study
provide insight on ways of improving college teaching and learning as well as informing the development of institutional academic
policies related to faculty and undergraduate education.

All programs in a midwestern university recently embarked on a path to help increase the scholarly productivity of faculty.
The effort to develop a research emphasis within the School of Education required determining the needs of tenure-track faculty
regarding meeting the new requirements. The purposes of our study were to investigate these needs and identify the individual,
environmental, and leadership factors that affect faculty productivity. Findings revealed a need to transform the School’s
service and teaching culture to a culture of research and scholarship. Recommendations for helping other schools of education
to become more research-oriented are provided. While the study focuses on data from a particular School of Education, the
implications may generalize to faculty productivity within other institutions, particularly within professional schools.

This study used empirical data to investigate College of Education faculty’s perceptions, beliefs, and commitment to diversity. A 44-item survey composed of Likert scale-type questions about characteristics, experiences, perspectives, and personal commitments to addressing diversity issues together with demographic questions, was administered to 116 COE faculty from four urban universities. A MANOVA where the independent variables were the demographic data and the dependent variables were five subscales (importance of diversity, training for pre-service teachers, college support, teaching diversity in courses, and issues of racial sensitivity) identified four statistically significant factors in faculty’s beliefs regarding the importance of diversity. The study found no support for a relationship between the faculty’s beliefs about the importance of teaching diversity and their teaching practices.Lynn A.

With increasing specialization, most academic disciplines have become highly compartmentalized. Numerous organizations in higher education strongly encourage interdisciplinary collaboration at the faculty and student level. The purposes of this article are (a) to provide a conceptual framework for explaining how and why an interdisciplinary case study method is a catalyst for the development of students and faculty; (b) to document the conception, planning, organizing, and results of an interdisciplinary case study workshop; and (c) to provide recommendations to encouragechange others who might want to apply this model to their own interdisciplinary efforts.All authors are at Towson University Sharon B.

Students take summer and compressed courses for a variety of reasons and research indicates that learning outcomes in these courses are similar to those gained in traditional semester or quarter courses. This quantitative study was an attempt to clarify faculty perceptions about summer compressed courses. One hundred and fifty-one faculty members teaching at a large, multicampus institution completed a survey addressing teaching methodology, approaches to student assessment, and other pedagogical issues relating to such courses. It was determined that many faculty did make adjustments in teaching methods and approaches to student assessment. In addition, perceptions were different between experienced/tenured faculty and inexperienced/nontenured faculty.Mark Kretovics is an Assistant Professor of Higher Education Administration and Student Personnel at Kent State University.

Figuring “Success” in a Bilingual High School 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Using the concept of figured worlds, this article demonstrates how the faculty, staff, and students of Gregorio Luperón High
School in New York City figured “success” by prioritizing the students’ linguistic and cultural resources. “Success” was constructed
specifically through granting Spanish high status, developing positive teacher–student relationships, and relying upon the
cultural artifact of the opportunity narrative. This qualitative ethnographic study focuses on the school-related social interactions
that took place among students, teachers and staff, to explore the socially and locally constructed model of success within
this bilingual high school for newly arrived, Spanish-speaking immigrant youth.

Engaging Undergraduate Students in Research Activities: Are Research Universities Doing a Better Job? 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Engaging undergraduate students in research activities has been advocated as an innovative strategy to improve American higher
education (Boyer Commission, Reinventing undergraduate education: A blueprint for America’s research universities. The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, Stony Brook, NY, 1998). This study compared the frequency of undergraduate
student research experiences at different types of colleges and universities from the early 1990s through 2004. The results
indicate that the frequency of student research experiences increased since 1998 at all types of institutions and that students
at research universities were not more likely than their counterparts elsewhere to have such experiences. The findings were
consistent across major fields. To live up to their claims, research universities must find additional ways to involve undergraduates
in research with faculty members.

This article describes and assesses “Research Circles” as a mechanism for enhancing faculty collegiality and research. Recently
established on our campus, these circles, composed of three to four faculty members, have had a particularly powerful effect
on the new faculty members' adjustment to their tenure track positions, especially since they entered a context that might
otherwise have been challenging: a new interdisciplinary upper-division campus with high expectations for teaching excellence.
Based on the end-of-year evaluations, journals, and focus groups, the co-authors described themes that emerged from their
participation in these circles. Circle participation not only facilitated faculty writing throughout their first year, but
it also fostered the development of an interdisciplinary community which nurtured creativity and risk taking in writing.

This study compares the extent to which higher education policy analysts and master’s and doctoral faculty of higher education
and public affairs programs match on a set of competencies thought to be important to higher education policy analysis. Analysts
matched master’s faculty in three competencies while analysts and doctoral faculty matched in five competencies. The findings
suggest possible reasons why analysts and graduate faculty agree or differ on various competencies. Also, the findings raise
important questions regarding the preparation of higher education policy analysts and the graduate programs that educate them.
This study is an addition to the body of competency literature.

Developing the motivation for improving university teaching 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
Stimulating faculty to take an active interest in improving their teaching remains a challenge to faculty developers in higher education. This survey of university faculty assessed attitudes toward teaching and teaching improvement. While faculty expressed high interest and desire for improving their teaching, the results suggest the presence of faculty subgroups with different degrees of motivation for faculty development. Implications are drawn for the creation of successful faculty development approaches which can capitalize on existing faculty interest, as well as develop faculty motivation for greater participation.She is currently directing a study of the teaching skills of medical residents.

This article reports on the impact of organized research centers on professional effort, productivity, and perceptions of
work satisfaction for life sciences faculty members at research intensive universities’ medical schools in the U.S. Results
indicate that senior center-affiliated faculty members taught less but worked more total hours than peers not affiliated with
centers. Senior affiliated faculty members were more productive than their non-affiliated peers and were more likely to be
principal investigators on externally funded grants. Center-affiliated faculty members were more likely to be dissatisfied
with their mix of activities and workload but more likely to be satisfied with job security and autonomy. Implications beyond
this context are suggested.

This article reports on a key finding of a phenomenological study on the mentoring experiences of women faculty. The study revealed the political climate of the organization as an essential attribute of this experience. Women faculty identified organizational culture and gender issues that affected the mentoring they received. This study suggests the need for human resource and organization development initiatives to facilitate the provision of academic mentoring for women faculty—individually, departmentally, and culturally—as a means to foster transformation and change in academic institutions.Sharon K.

The authors investigated student and faculty perceptions of academic challenge at their institution, based on early administrations of the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE). This analysis revealed that the NSSE did not fully capture many meanings of academic challenge held by these faculty and students. This study led to a proposal for the development of an internal assessment approach using a modification of the NSSE and other scale items on academic challenge and student engagement. The authors discuss several implications of this study for academic scholarship and for institutional policy concerning the assessment of academic challenge.All authors except Jim Purcell are at Georgia College and State University.
