Abstract

In his keynote speech at the 1994 POD Conference, William Plater declared that faculty development professionals "by bearing in mind the incredible organizational, social, economic, and technological upheaval that is occurring right now ... have unprecedented opportunity to make a difference in the lives of individual faculty and the viability of whole institutions.'' The authors of the articles in this section provide different perspectives on the practice of faculty development, past, present, and future, and suggest ways that we might adapt our approaches to the changing environment of higher education.
