University of Miami School of Law Faculty Development Wiki

Introduction

Welcome to the University of Miami School of Law Faculty Development Wiki, originated and curated by UM Law's Director of Faculty Development.

The "Director of Faculty Development" is charged with helping faculty with their research. That is at once a daunting and somewhat formless charge. In the hopes of giving that mission some form and content, this page and the set of pages that it links to are an experiment in cooperative organization and information-sharing. NOTE: Given the nature of a wiki, not all pages are linked from this one, so please click around.

These pages are designed to be a collaborative exercise: Wiki pages can be edited by anyone with the access to read them. See Wiki Editing Instructions. (for more about who can read these pages see Security). That means that you are invited to help define the Director's Mission Statement and even add things to his To-Do List by going to those pages and clicking on the edit tab at the top of the page. You also can create as many new pages as you wish, although if you want anyone to read them you'll need to make sure that at least one other accessible page links to each of them.
