Interdisciplinary Teaching Approaches for New Faculty

314 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

It's no secret that the new faculty experience in higher education is rather fraught with difficulties. Mounting pressures for professional publication, navigating the tricky waters of fluctuating publisher resources, ballooning service requirements, and limited departmental resources can all leave a new faculty member struggling with imposter syndrome at best, and floundering in silence while attempting to develop effective classroom strategies at worst. Discover a range of flexible, immediately actionable projects, assignments, and curriculum structures in Swamped: Interdisciplinary Teaching Approaches for New Faculty. These battle-tested strategies have been carefully organized to provide new instructors with the space to adapt, modify, or reuse this material to fit any academic context or need. Developed by experienced faculty from Indiana University East, the goal is to share and disseminate these tools and experiences as widely as possible so that others might use them, make them better, and share them further. The authors and editor intend for these projects, assignments, and processes to create freedom and academic space for new faculty members to work on their vital research, focus on innovative service opportunities, and help mitigate teaching fears and uncertainties that often accompany the transition from graduate student to professor.
