Description

This indispensable handbook provides helpful strategies for dealing with both the everyday challenges of university teaching and those that arise in efforts to maximize learning for every student. The suggested strategies are supported by research and adaptable to specific classroom situations. Rather than suggest a "set of recipes" to be followed mechanically, the book gives instructors the tools they need to deal with the ever-changing dynamics of teaching and learning. Available with InfoTrac Student Collections http: //gocengage.com/infotrac.

Critical Reviews

"MCKEACHIE'S TEACHING TIPS is the best introduction to teaching at the college level; it is incredibly useful as you begin your career, and you'll find yourself referring to it for years to come."

"Excellent text on teaching at the college level. I would recommend this text not only for new faculty and adjuncts, but for all faculty. This is a valuable resource."

"This is a teaching and learning resource that needs to stay on the corner of your desk."

"Extremely practical and approachable. A strong introduction/overview of key concepts and theories that are critical for novice and continuing instructors. A comprehensive collection of advice and ideas that stimulate thinking about effective instruction. It provides incoming teachers with a foundation that many instructors develop only after extensive experience."
