The study of different ways to plan and support professional development within Diné College is supported through this grant. Your work may be framed as a self-study, a collaborative effort, etc.

The scope of study is open for discussion with the Bush Committee. For example, grant-supported studies in this area may include work related to developing a plan for faculty peer mentoring, proposing ways to organize a portfolio system for faculty recording of their professional lives, etc.

Considerations
Here are several topics for further study that were raised in the original Bush proposal: 

Faculty-to-faculty mentoring

Clarifying role(s) of faculty

Assessing cultural competency of faculty

 Creating a faculty development plan

For examples of activities or projects, see "About our Grant."
