title: Instructional improvement: how to overcome the barriers?
abstract: This is no easy way to improve teaching. Not one or even two activities are right or best for all instructions. The improvement of instruction requires a multi directional approach. When faculty members, departmental heads or interested administrator come across an idea they find appealing, they often tend to be converted and start proselytizing. The way to better teaching lies in review of videotaped teaching samples or diagnostic student evaluation with consultation, or seminars on course design, or monitoring with master teachers, peer assessment or whatever the favored strategy happens to be. All of these are possible ways to better teaching, made right or best only after they have been carefully matched with their instructional needs of the teacher, course content & instructional setting.
