In this essay, originally presented to an audience of colleagues, students, and university faculty, I briefly review the meanings I ascribe to my experience of nearly half a century as a university faculty member. I emphasize the improvisational quality of professorial life, the amusing characters I was able to observe and with whom I often worked, and several unsettling and agitating dimensions of university life that I experienced along the way. Inspired by the challenge of educating the whole person, mind and heart, and passionate about the moral, emotional, and literary urgency of the human sciences, I plan to continue to focus on self-clarifying, evocative, and potentially transforming stories.

Over the last decade, an increasing number of postsecondary education (PSE) programs have been developed for students with intellectual disability (ID). This case discusses one such program. Along with the courses designed to meet the specific needs of students with ID, the program also permits these students to take courses in the various departments of the university. Faculty were informed that their course(s) might include students from the PSE program for students with ID. One faculty member likes the idea of the program but is not comfortable with students with ID registering for his courses. This case uses discussion prompts and activities to prepare instructors and professors in higher education to foster inclusive practices and ideology throughout the collective university community.

A comparison of courses that do or do not utilize a Course Management System (CMS) was undertaken from thestandpoint of a new faculty member. Seven distinct advantages were found with CMS implementation includinginitial tutorial group set-ups, email communication, sharing of student generated products, sharing ofinstructor-generated products, collection of assignments, delivery of graded assignments, and plagiarism checks.CMS training that precedes the start of a course is recommended for new teaching staff, particularly for largecourses of greater than 100 students, where CMS implementation has substantial benefits.

In this paper we have outlined a model for instructional improvement which stresses working directly with university faculty members on their teaching skills. Integral to the workings of the model is the constructive combination of educational technology and human resources. An example of how the model is implemented with a faculty member illustrates its feasibility.
