520 | |a In response to reduced state funding for faculty development in community colleges in Washington, the Faculty Association of Community Colleges and the State Board for Community College Education established a special committee in 1989 to make recommendations to enhance faculty development efforts at the 27 community colleges statewide. To determine faculty development needs, the committee surveyed the state's 2,684 full-time faculty to determine specific development needs, the degree of faculty interest in certain content areas, and the best methods for delivering faculty development activities. Study findings, based on a 70% response rate, included the following: (1) the highest interest area for all faculty regardless of their discipline, level of experience, gender or region, was development activities for working with students (e.g., making goals and requirements clear, encouraging independent thought, and demonstrating interest in learning); (2) about 75% of the faculty in all disciplines expressed high interst in 6 of the other 25 faculty development topics (i.e., instructional methods, critical thinking, use of computers, use of technology in teaching, articulation with universities, and gaining expertise in a specific field); (3) faculty expressed the most interest in local workshops or individualized development activities (81% of the respondents were likely to participate in release time activities); and (4) barriers to participation included limited time and funding, and undesirable locations of activities. The survey instrument, with numerical and percentage results for each question, is included. (JMC) | ||
