Turning the Page: The Importance of Faculty-Led Book Clubs
Landry, Christie A.; Richard, Jacqueline M.; Layou, Karen M.
New Directions for Community Colleges, n199 p163-172 Fall 2022
One of the easiest-to-implement forms of professional development for colleges and universities is the faculty-led book club (FLBC), yet little has been written regarding implementation, outcomes, and experiences of those participating in FLBCs as a form of professional development for college faculty. Book clubs are relatively easy to implement, build community among faculty and staff, provide leadership experience, foster conversations around timely pedagogical and social issues, and lead to change in instructional practice. In this chapter, we recall the experiences of several community college faculty and their opportunities to facilitate book clubs on their campuses.
