▼a The intent of this study was to understand professors at a research university, and how the environments and individuals they interact with influenced them and their teaching. The primary research question for this study was, "How do professors at a research university understand and explain the factors that have influenced their teaching?" The secondary research question was intended to focus on the institutional factors that had the most influence on a professor and their teaching: "What are the most influential factors that affect a professor's teaching at a research institution?"I interviewed 15 award-winning professors from Michigan State University (MSU) about how they had been prepared, supported, and recognized for their work as teachers. My analysis showed how little preparation the professors received about teaching at a research university, how they relieved more on experience and trusted peers than any of the available campus resources, and how they tended to find personal student recognition more rewarding than their prestigious teaching awards. My results showed how institutional deficiencies (the lack teaching preparation, applicable resources, and sufficient recognition) created obstacles for the professors to overcome as they progressed and developed as teachers. To lessen or remove the institutional obstacles, I recommend research universities better assess and recognize a professor's teaching, faculty developers localize their available resources to the individual colleges and departments, and professors utilize their peers and self-reflection as a way to meet their needs and expectations as teachers. Professors at research universities are expected to prioritize their teaching and scholarship, but the importance of the former can become complicated when institutions place a greater emphasis on the latter (via the tenure process, promotions, raises, and rewards). This study extends previous scholarship which shows that professors at research universities are not sufficiently prepared, supported, or recognized for their work as teachers. If the individual institutions do not properly prepare their professors as teachers, then there is uncertainty as to how, where, and why the individual professors succeed and develop as teachers. |
