Responsible Recognition: Evaluating Community College Faculty Recognition Programs
Sun, April 11, 4:10 to 5:40pm EDT (4:10 to 5:40pm EDT), SIG Sessions, SIG-Faculty Teaching, Evaluation, and Development Paper and Symposium SessionsAbstract
This paper is a policy document analysis evaluating the recognition programs at five community colleges in the United States through an applied critical leadership lens. Faculty recognition programs can provide alternatives to tenure for institutions that have eliminated or reduced the practice (Warner, 2018), so they are well-suited to community college environments. However, community college leaders must design programs carefully to ensure that the programs account for the diverse ways in which faculty understand and desire recognition. Using applied critical leadership as the framework to evaluate and design these programs can help to create more culturally responsive faculty recognition opportunities.
