Abstract

This article describes a faculty development exercise implemented at Kalamazoo Valley Community College in 1975. If one makes the supposition that one output of faculty development is increased intracollege communication among various groups of employees, then the exercise was a remarkable success. We believe that the “show and tell” attitude could be used profitably in business and industry as well. The authors and implementors of this particular communications exercise would like to hear from others who emulate this model or a similar one. We did not gather sufficient feedback to make any generalizations about the long-term impact of such an exercise. We would be pleased to respond to questions about the exercise.
