About me

Please allow me this opportunity to welcome everyone to The Lounge! As someone who has had the honor of being in career education and corporate training for thirty years (gee, it makes me feel much older!), I can honestly say that I am the happiest professionally when having the opportunity to interact with fellow career educators - whether it be a training event, webinar, or medium such as this where we can collaboratively share our thoughts.

ED104 Late assignments

I read with interest your comments about accepting late assignments. I have
found in teaching that there are sometimes special circumstances that allow
for a late assignment, however to your point, where does one draw the line?
Once an instructor permits late work it is hard to reinforce the importance
of timely submission - being penalized for late work may be a hard lesson to
learn, but the professional workforce is far less forgiving than the
classroom and we owe it to our students to prepare them in these workplace
performance skills.

Why Are Training Observations Important?

This is great, Michele! I have found that even seasoned instructors like the opportunity to demonstrate a technique or method from training that they have enhanced and applied - the wonderful benefit is that even though there is always something more to learn through continuing education, a seasoned instructor can also lend his or her insights and experience to the equation - a win-win for everyone.

Seven Leadership Principles for Faculty Coaches

I know that many of the Faculty Coaches in the CEE Facuty Development Program have leadership, supervisory and/or management positions with their institutions and so I wanted to resurface a brief blog to overview, in bullet point form fashion, seven principles for leading a diverse educational team. Of course, much of what we discuss in the Faculty Coach Consortium may be in line with the workings of the CEE program, teaching methodologies, and instructional tips and techniques to share with our instructors. From time to time though, I hope that we can also address our supervisory roles and share best practices along the way.

Evaluating Faculty Performance: How Subjective Is It?

Hi Landon, good point! Even the subjective areas of performance analysis can be analyzed metrically, however, at the same time, I think that subjective comments from instructors and their mentors and/or supervisors are equally valuable to the complete performance appraisal process.
