The essential how-to guide to successful college teaching and
learning The college classroom is a place where students have the
opportunity to be transformed and inspired through learning-but
teachers need to understand how students actually learn. Robert
DiYanni and Anton Borst provide an accessible, hands-on guide to
the craft of college teaching, giving instructors the practical
tools they need to help students achieve not only academic success
but also meaningful learning to last a lifetime. The Craft of
College Teaching explains what to teach-emphasizing concepts and
their relationships, not just isolated facts-as well as how to
teach using active learning strategies that engage students through
problems, case studies and scenarios, and practice reinforced by
constructive feedback. The book tells how to motivate students, run
productive discussions, create engaging lectures, use technology
effectively, and much more. Interludes between chapters illustrate
common challenges, including what to do on the first and last days
of class and how to deal with student embarrassment, manage group
work, and mentor students effectively. There are also plenty of
questions and activities at the end of each chapter. Blending the
latest research with practical techniques that really work, this
easy-to-use guide draws on DiYanni and Borst's experience as
professors, faculty consultants, and workshop leaders. Proven in
the classroom and the workshop arena, The Craft of College Teaching
is an essential resource for new instructors and seasoned pros
alike.
