If you're looking for inspiration to alter your teaching methods to
match new standards and new times, this book is for you. As the
first in the Exemplary Science series to focus exclusively on
college science teaching, this book offers 16 examples of college
teaching that builds on what students learned in high school.
Understanding that college does not exist in a vacuum, the chapter
authors demonstrate how to adapt the methods and frameworks under
which secondary students have been working and make them their own
for the college classroom, adding new technologies when appropriate
and letting the students take an active role in their learning.
Among the innovative topics and techniques the essays in this book
explore are lecture-free college science teaching; peer-led study
groups as learning communities; jigsaw techniques that enhance
learning; inquiry incorporated into large-group settings; and
interactive video conferences for assessing student attitudes and
behaviours. The cliched image of the professor droning on before a
packed lecture hall is a thing of the past. The essays in this book
explain why-and offer the promise of a better future.
