Excellent teaching does not happen simply because of commitment, commitment to ones students, commitment to ones discipline. Excellent teaching happens when lively minds interact, and the lively minds among the faculty are kept lively by research . . . Including scholarship. Forget that vs.; we ARE teacher/scholars! - Jan Cohn

"Comprehensive faculty development empowers faculty members to excel and to create vibrant academic communities." (Wilkerson and Irby 1998)

Whether reporting studies of productivity of research scientists, career satisfaction of clinical educators, or the general environment for mission related activities, the results are the same: effective policies that reward contribution to the missions of research, teaching, and service combined with skill development and academic community support are essential to maintaining productive faculty.

Fixing or incentivizing the faculty member without improving the environment for mission-related activities is not sufficient
