Teaching Gradually is a guide for anyone new to teaching and
learning in higher education. Written for graduate student
instructors, by graduate students with substantive teaching
experience, this resource is among the first of its kind to speak
to graduate students as comrades-in-arms with voices from alongside
them in the trenches, rather than from far behind the lines. Each
author featured in this book was a graduate student at the time
they wrote their contribution. Consequently, the following chapters
give scope to a newer, diverse generation of educators who are
closer in experience and professional age to the book's intended
audience. The tools, methods, and ideas discussed here are ones
that the authors have found most useful in teaching today's
students. Each chapter offers a variety of strategies for
successful classroom practices that are often not explicitly
covered in graduate training.Overall, this book consists of 42
chapters written by 51 authors who speak from a vast array of
backgrounds and viewpoints, and who represent abroad spectrum of
experience spanning small, large, public, and private institutions
of higher education. Each chapter offers targeted advice that
speaks to the learning curve inherent to early-career teaching,
while presenting tangible strategies that readers can leverage to
address the dynamic professional landscape they inhabit. The
contributors' stories and reflections provide the context to build
the reader's confidence in trying new approaches in their his or
her teaching. This book covers a wide range of topics designed to
appeal to graduate student instructors across disciplines, from
those teaching discussion sections, to those managing studio
classes and lab sessions, to those serving as the instructor of
record for their own course. Despite the medley of content, two
common threads run throughout this volume: a strong focus on
diversity and inclusion, and an acknowledgment of the increasing
shift to online teaching. As a result of engaging with Teaching
Gradually, readers will be able to: Identify best teaching
practices to enhance student learning. Develop a plan to implement
these strategies in their teaching. Expand their conception of
contexts in which teaching and learning can take place. Evaluate
and refine their approaches to fostering inclusion in and out of
the classroom. Assess student learning and the efficacy of their
own teaching practices. Practice professional self-reflection.
