ABSTRACT

Many factors influence the effectiveness of educational programs and initiatives for engineering faculty, including job responsibilities, departmental and college culture, experience, and more. In the current study, we examine the results and implications of a survey assessing faculty priorities and needs for educational and instructional responsibilities, as well as for research and service responsibilities. The results from this study found variance between what faculty reported as their most important job responsibilities and the job responsibilities where they would like to receive more support. These variations were seen across teaching, research, and service responsibilities. Implications for academic developers are discussed.

摘要

许多因素会影响工程教师的教育计划和举措的有效性，包括工作职责、部门和大学文化、经验等。在目前的研究中，我们研究了一项调查的结果和影响，该调查评估了教师优先考虑的教育和教学责任以及研究和服务责任的需求。这项研究的结果发现，教师报告的最重要的工作职责与他们希望获得更多支持的工作职责之间存在差异。这些差异体现在教学、研究和服务职责中。讨论了对学术开发人员的影响。
