Essentials of College and University Teaching: A Practical Guide

On campuses today, there is not only increased interest in effective teaching, but increased expectations from administrators, other faculty, and students, that instructors will teach well. Essentials of College and University Teaching meets this growing need by providing a comprehensive but succinct handbook on all important aspects of post-secondary teaching. The book is intended for instructors, professors, and graduate students at colleges and universities. It will be especially helpful both to new and experienced faculty. It will appeal to individuals in all disciplines; the authors’ ideas apply to the instruction of any topic from philosophy to engineering. Boyle and Rothstein have employed examples from a wide range of disciplines, to make this point and to appeal to a broad readership.
