Abstract
People trying to establish an instructional development program on a college or university campus frequently face two major problems. One of these is simply the difficulty of acquainting the faculty with and interesting them in an activity that is generally not familiar to them. Compounding this problem is the not uncommon belief among faculty members that participating in something called instructional development is tantamount to admitting that they have a problem with their teaching, i.e., a "professional disease" that they cannot solve by themselves.
