A case is advanced for educational action research projects for facult y development. In these projects participants examine and seek to impr ove selected aspects of their own teaching. Regular meetings allow for perspective transformation through discourse. Gathering interpretive data provides evidence to convince uncommitted departmental colleagues and can result in publications.
