What are the dimensions of individuals who maintain professional momentum in their teaching? The thesis of this paper is that such professionals are up to date with the science they profess. Not only do these professionals generate new knowledge, but they also use the new knowledge generated by others. They maintain authority in their role. When they speak, advise, instruct, and report, people listen because something worth listening to is being said. Individuals who maintain momentum in their teaching have great credibility. They also maintain a high level of energy and commitment.
