with 10 GTAs. Participants selected forfollow-up interviews are GTAs who are teaching recitations. We did not include GTAs whoseprimary duties were grading and holding office hours but who were not in the classroom withstudents. These one-on-one semi-structured interviews were conducted roughly one semesterinto participants’ GTA experience. These interviews explore the techniques GTA’s use in theclassroom, their view of their role in the classroom and how it reflects their thinking aboutteaching, their own experiences as a student, and their experience participating in teachingrelated PD. We plan to interview the GTAs again after the completion of their first year to studyhow their teaching identity continues to evolve.In this paper, we report

Finally, research indicates that uncertaintysurrounding the standards by which one is being evaluated can lead to professionaldissatisfaction and can (perhaps unnecessarily) complicate one’s ability to plan and present acompelling case for promotion [17].There is debate about whether it would help to make written criteria and guidelines morecomprehensive [18]. Alternatively (or in addition), departments can rely on various types ofmentoring mechanisms as a means of clarifying the process. One such mechanism, which hasreceived relatively little discussion in the literature, can be found in pre-tenure peer reviews.Many universities have a process by which faculty are reviewed on their teaching, research

Barriers to adopting EBIPs includeinadequate preparation time, content coverage concerns, unsupportive colleagues or departmentalculture, limited professional development opportunities, negative student reactions, andmisalignment with instructor reward structures [4], [5]. Instructors commonly cite a lack of time,especially the initial commitment required to transition from traditional lecture-focused methods,as a key obstacle to instructional change [6], [7]. In order to turn daunting barriers into instructionalsuccesses, engineering faculty and teaching training centers need to be intentional in planning forEBIP implementation

Carrying these goals, the leadershipdirector then partnered with a positive leadership external consultant to produce a year-long,research-based Michigan Engineering Positive Leadership Program, driven by several questions:What kind of culture do we hope to create with the engineering leaders?

who participated in the study experienced challenges related to planning andoperationalizing their lessons (e.g., knowing how to select content for their lessons), using thelearning management system, and navigating online classroom environments. Further, analyzingthe data through the lens of Schlossberg’s Transition Theory helped identify that the supportstructure used to cope with challenges was informal mentorship, i.e., participants sought supportfrom senior peers who had taught the same classes they were teaching and built their materialfrom existing resources. These findings provide a first step in creating specific professionaldevelopment activities for both new engineering faculty and new faculty generally to improvetheir experience

Examples include time conflicts with otheractivities, lack of additional stipends, and a rapid modification to their planned lectures. Despitethese constraints, a small faculty cohort (n = 7) met, when possible, throughout the semesterduring three different sessions to share their micromoment implementations, suggestions, andstudents

These items could be included in point2, about communications, and that is where we have aligned our faculty’s comments. In abroader sense, careful planning would also involve deciding on learning objectives, the depth inwhich to cover topics, deciding on the sequencing, determining effective pedagogy for each classand so on, but these probably are beyond ethical requirements.

Determining the effectiveness of the Entering Mentoringtraining curriculum involves measuring a training program's results and determining whetherintended outcomes have been achieved. Thus, it is essential to understand assessment tools andtheir appropriate usage when planning and evaluating mentorship programs. Since itsintroduction in 2005, the Entering Mentoring training curriculum has been evaluated usingvarious assessment tools and approaches.

As a result of this study onsearch committees, we have developed rubrics for our institution for both DEI statements andoverall candidate evaluation at all stages of the faculty search process that are adaptable to anydiscipline. An interesting theme that arose from the interviews was how search committees talkedabout DEI, including how they evaluated DEI statements, what was considered evidence of acommitment to DEI (e.g., past activities or ideas for future contributions), and how importantDEI was in comparison to research and teaching. We plan to write a future paper addressingthese topics.References• [1
