More than ever, higher ed needs a new approach to assessing what faculty do, writes Salvatore J. Catanzaro, who proposes an integrated teacher-scholar model. In the face of internal disenchantment about faculty recognition and reward systems, as well as external threats questioning the value of faculty work and tenure altogether, higher education needs a new approach to understanding, evaluating and recognizing what faculty do more than ever before.

Lecturing has long been the primary method of conveying information to groups of students. It gives instructors great control over what is taught within a limited time, allowing them to explain complex concepts and clarify confusing points for students. But the monotonous presentation of information and lengthy one-way communication in didactic lecture lacks student engagement and makes students passive listeners in their learning process.
