This study was conducted to explore how a yearlong topics-based faculty learning community targeted for developmental reading adjunct faculty affected faculty experiences, while helping developmental reading adjunct faculty shift their pedagogy from a skills- to a holistic-based approach to college-level literacy. This qualitative study collected data from adjunct faculty participants who engaged in a year-long topics-based learning community, with an emphasis on the shift in pedagogy within the field of developmental college-level reading classes. This qualitative study collected data from a focus group of the participants, individual interviews from each of the participants, and document reviews of participant syllabi and projects that focused on a single unit to demonstrate their understanding of the shift in pedagogy. The data demonstrate that topics-based learning community experiences provide significant support for adjunct faculty when shifting pedagogy from a skills-based approach to a holistic approach to college-level literacy in a developmental reading department. Additional findings include adjunct perceptions of marginalization within an institution, which can be ameliorated by professional development opportunities that are executed and implemented with thought and care.
