We have developed and tested a dynamic approach to assist positive, department-wide change at institutions of higher education. Here we describe a workshop strategy designed to empower faculty as agents of change. This strategy incorporates tools and concepts including systems thinking, visual facilitation, and action planning to drive transformation at the department/program level. Although our workshops were developed for life sciences faculty, the processes we adopted, and the lessons learned from the project, provide a framework for the faculty of any STEM discipline at any type of higher education institution to develop skills to effect changes in approach and pedagogy that will improve learning outcomes. While our workshops were carried out in person, we describe approaches that can be adapted for online use. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
