Paper Abstract:
|
A comprehensive adjunct faculty training program is described, whose aim is to improve student perceptions of courses and programs in a private, not-for-profit MBA and Law degree granting university in San Francisco, The program is somewhat novel in that it uses (a) student input from open-ended responses on course evaluations to determine faculty to be addressed, (b) it uses in-place online learning platforms and processes to deliver training, and (c) it includes a plan for monitoring faculty improvement, through hopefully improved course evaluations, mentoring, and course championing by full time faculty members. |
