Descripciones mejoradas de Syndetics:
I've read countless books on teaching strategies over the years, and I can't think of one that compares--in depth, breadth, accessibility, and practicality--to this one. Tools for Teaching has much to say to teachers of all ranks, disciplines, and institutions.
--Mary Deane Sorcinelli, director, Center for Teaching, University of Massachusetts, Amherst
A rich compendium of classroom-tested strategies and suggestions designed to improve the teaching practice of beginning, midcareer, and senior faculty members. Forty-nine teaching tools cover both traditional tasks--writing a course syllabus, delivering a lecture--and newer, broader concerns, such as responding to diversity and using technology.
Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
Getting under way -- Responding to a diverse student body -- Discussion strategies -- Lecture strategies -- Collaborative and experiential strategies -- Enhancing students' learning and motivation -- Writing skills and homework assignments -- Testing and grading -- Instructional media and technology -- Evaluation to improve teaching -- Teaching outside the classroom -- Finishing up.
