Learning How to Teach: The Case for Faculty Learning Communities Conference Paper

abstract

• Faculty learning communities, a specialized form of communities of practice, are not new. These communities provide opportunities for learning, feedback, and collegiality. Even with all of these benefits, many faculty have never participated in a learning community, sometimes because colleges and schools have not yet established one. This paper presents two cases in which faculty participated in a Faculty Learning Community and provides some recommendations for establishing a new community.
