Abstract | This paper compares discussions of instructional resources in academic departments with highly continuous planning with those of departments characterized by less continuous planning. Members of 44 departments in different fields and institutional types were interviewed about their department's planning contexts, roles, processes, and decisions. Interviews were conducted with 44 department chairs and 83 faculty members. Compared to departments that scored low for continuous program planning, high scoring departments discussed instructional resources more frequently and systematically, and had more complex instructional resource concerns. Departments in the low continuous planning group tended to describe instructional resource discussions as "complaining" rather than "planning." Disciplinary and institutional differences and implications for instructional resources and planning are discussed. (Contains 1 table and 14 references.) (Author/SLD) |
