Abstract: Institutions of higher education have a great role to play through quality teaching for student learning. However, few faculties receive any type of teacher training before entering the academic world. As a result, faculty development is one likely solution to enhance teacher quality. But traditional faculty development method is facing serious shortcomings that impede its ability to improve teacher quality. The answer of faculty development lies in the marriage of two unlikely partners: online learning and case studies. This paper explores the possibilities for faculty development through online discussion of a case in the form of a model which could be a viable strategy for faculty development to improve teaching quality in all disciplines of higher education.
