Belonging, teaching environments, & grading: An exploration of faculty emotion

Abstract

The session provides an overview of faculty members’ sense of belonging to their institutions, their sense of supportive teaching environments, and their thoughts about grading. Findings from our large-scale, multi-institutional study help faculty developers and other administrators better understand faculty members and how these affective constructs vary by faculty sub-groups. Participants will be invited to join in a conversation about the results and how the study’s findings could lead to providing better support to faculty members in their varied roles on college campuses.
