Through this study, I seek to find ways that collaboration around teaching and learning occurs interdepartmentally at the university.25205 bytesapplication/pdfen-USAdult EducationAdult LearningProfessional Continuing EducationAdult Education And Faculty Development: Expanding The Reach In The AcademyArticle
