The first is a more international perspective from the very active and thriving faculty development work being done in Canada. The second is curriculum design. The authors attempt to blend the very real need for institutions to engage in regular curriculum practice as a growth experience and the important role that faculty can lay in the process. In addition, they propose the idea of a scholarship of curriculum practice to complement the scholarship of teaching and learning. They pose the interesting challenge: Shouldn't everything we do in the academy be done in a scholarly manner?
