As the number of adjunct faculty teaching online courses remotely
for their institutions continues to increase, so do the unique
challenges they face, including issues of distance and isolation as
well as problems pertaining to motivation, time, and compensation.
Not only are these higher education faculty geographically isolated
from each other and their colleagues at flagship campuses, but they
also lack adequate institutional support and resources necessary to
perform their roles. As institutions continue to rely heavily on
this group of under-supported and undertrained instructors who
teach the majority of online courses offered across the country,
institutions need models and strategies to tap the expertise and
perspectives of this group not only to improve teaching and
learning in online programs but also to retain this critical talent
pool. More consideration is needed to create institutional affinity
and organizational commitment, build community, and create
opportunities for remote adjunct faculty to be included as an
integral component to their academic departments. The Handbook of
Research on Inclusive Development for Remote Adjunct Faculty in
Higher Education is a comprehensive reference work that presents
research, theoretical frameworks, instructor perspectives, and
program models that highlight effective strategies, innovative
approaches, and unique considerations for creating professional
development opportunities for remote adjunct faculty teaching
online. This book provides concrete practices that foster
inclusivity among contingent faculty teaching online as well as
tangible practices that have been successfully implemented from
faculty developers and academic leaders at institutions who have a
large population of, and heavy reliance on, remote adjunct
instructors. While addressing topics that include faculty
engagement, mentoring programs, and instructor resources, this book
intends to support remote instructors in the post-pandemic world.
It is also beneficial for faculty development professionals;
academic administrative leaders; higher education stakeholders; and
higher education faculty, researchers, and students.
