"This innovative and readable book is not something to be
cherry-picked for quick hints and tips. It is a work to be read and
re-read and savoured for its humanity, sagacity, practicality and
reflection upon the all-important relationships between teaching
and learning and the teacher and the learner." British Journal of
Educational Technology"...a delightful and unusual reflective
journey...the whole book is driven by a cycle of questions,
examples, strategies and generalizations from the examples. In all,
it is the clearest example of practise-what-you-preach that I have
seen." John Biggs, Honorary Professor of Psychology, University of
Hong Kong "This is a unique book, written by a well-known figure in
HE who has broad experience and a long track record as an exemplary
and caring teacher...The book is unique because it is written in a
very personal manner, with a sharing of the author's varied
experiences and great enthusiasm for the processes of teaching and
communication." Jenny Moon, Bournemouth Media Centre and
Independent Consultant "[Cowan's] innovative approach to the
authorship of a well researched and practical book is worthy of
particular mention...Practitioners that are keen to allow spaces
for innovative approaches to professional development in learners
will find this text readable and thought provoking." Teaching in
Higher EducationOn Becoming an Innovative University Teacher shows
readers how to plan and run innovative activities to engage their
students in effective reflective learning. The book uses an unusual
and accessible method: each chapter begins by posing a question
with which university and college teachers can be expected to
identify; then answers the question by presenting a series of
examples, thereafter the writer frankly airs his own second
thoughts on what he has offered.In the second edition of this
popular book, Cowan maintains his relaxed and readable style, and
the book features revised coverage to make it even more accessible
and useful. The examples have been updated throughout and a new
chapter looks at innovation and reflection in the context of
contemporary higher education.This is key reading for all
university teachers, whether new or experienced, who want to
revitalise their teaching.
