Are you a postgraduate student just beginning to teach? Are you a
contract researcher, teaching fellow or instructor who has been
asked to do some teaching? If you are, you may feel you have been
`thrown in at the deep end'. You may quite rightly, feel unprepared
for the task, and, like other postgraduate teachers, you may be
facing a number of dilemmas: you may not have much time to feel
your way into this new role; you may not be happy with what looks
like a `trial and error' model of learning to teach; you may even
feel you have not had much choice in what you are to teach or what
kinds of sessions you've been asked to facilitate. Someone in your
department may have tried to reassure you -- `You know all this
stuff. You'll be fine' -- on the basis of your first degree, but
you may still be worried about whether or not you are really ready
to teach. Teaching at University has been written to provide you
with the basic skills required to enter those first lectures,
tutorials, lab-sessions and assessments with confidence. Clear and
engaging throughout, this guide will offer: " Accessible and
generic language to support postgraduates in all disciplines "
Basic but relevant advice " Portfolio sections at the end of each
chapter " A direct and practical approach and style " An emphasis
on helping you to get started and build up your confidence in the
first few classes you teach " Integration of theory (in small
doses) with practice With an application spanning the disciplines,
Teaching at University is the essential companion for all teaching
postgraduates and new lecturers.
