Abstract	This book examines the debate around posttenure review and suggests a model for faculty development that combines posttenure review with faculty assessment and development. The book addresses issues such as: what is faculty development; types of posttenure faculty development programs; designing development strategies; and what are the implications of choosing to develop faculty. Section titles include: (1) "Why Is Development of Tenured Faculty a Concern?" (posttenure review, need for posttenure faculty development); (2) "How Has Higher Education Responded to This Concern?" (history/roots of faculty development, models of faculty development, faculty development and posttenure review); (3) "Posttenure Faculty Development in Action" (optional posttenure programs, required posttenure faculty development, jointly sponsored programs); (4) "Designing Development Programs for Tenured Faculty" (recommendations and tools, assessment of development programs, nondeveloping tenured faculty). A concluding section suggests that posttenure faculty development should not be linked directly with the formal posttenure review process; instead, it suggests a comprehensive system of optional development opportunities, with annual development plans that combine merit pay and strong administrative leadership to ensure that improvement activities reach all tenured faculty. Appendixes include a resource section, example of a program at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and sample guidelines for a faculty development plan. (Contains approximately 180 references.) (CH)
