Implementing Comprehensive Teacher Training in Business Doctoral Programs
Brightman, Harvey J.; Nargundkar, Satish
Decision Sciences Journal of Innovative Education, v11 n4 p297-304 Oct 2013
The advent of digital course offerings, the use of social media, the integration of the Khan Academy into curricula, the use of smart phones and tablets, and massive online courses place greater emphasis than ever on effective teaching. While business schools fund faculty development in teaching, too few doctoral programs offer systematic teacher training. We discuss the lack of, and the need for, comprehensive teacher-training programs. We present the Robinson College of Business model and offer recommendations on how to get started. It is time for PhD programs to certify that their students are capable of teaching upon graduation.
