Using Learning Communities to Build Faculty Support for Pedagogical Innovation: A Multi-Campus Study
Furco, Andrew; Moely, Barbara E.
Journal of Higher Education, v83 n1 p128-153 Jan-Feb 2012
To encourage greater adoption of a pedagogical innovation (service-learning), semester long faculty learning communities were established at eight institutions. These learning community experiences produced gains in participants' (N = 152) self-assessed expertise with service-learning, ability to collaborate with community partners, and appreciation for the innovation's value for students and their own professional development. (Contains 4 tables.)
