14.026 - Faculty Developers as Insiders and Outsiders: Work-Based Learning for Professional Development
Thu, April 16, 12:00 to 1:30pm, Sheraton, Floor: Second Level, Michigan ASession Type: Symposium
Abstract
Conventional approaches to faculty development should expand to consider learners’ context and learning trajectories more explicitly, develop local learning networks, and to bridge the “cultural divide” that separates disciplines, cultures, and ways of knowing. A work-based learning framework holds promise for accomplishing these goals. This paper session will present recent work that illustrates the advantages and challenges of using work-based learning to promote faculty development in the professions. Drawing from several qualitative research studies, the authors will report on the benefits of immersing learners in authentic settings for professional development, as well as the challenges and implications for their work, when they must depend upon significant aspects of the learning environment that are beyond their control.
