Pseudo-Section: Professional Development

Educators must become master teachers by acquiring competencies that are identified as part of the desired repertoire. Examples of these include assessment, creating measures of effectiveness, using learning theory, creating enriched learning environments, designing instruction, conducting research, and modeling good team membership. This role of Professional Development is addressed by the Faculty Guidebook, as a whole. Certain modules stand out, however, as proving particularly topical and useful for faculty interested in professional development as educators.
