Professors are expected to be excellent teachers. What do you need to know in order to successfully teach in an American-style university? Written by a widely recognized expert in university teaching, this book covers the essential teaching skills of active learning and the teaching philosophies of intellectual engagement now expected of professors in American and American-style universities. In stark contrast to the traditional approach of providing clearly delivered and accurate lectures, today's professors are expected to fully engage students in discussion and critical thinking learning activities during class and provide authentic homework assignments that look more like creative projects than repetitive practice drills. This book outlines what a commitment to student-centered, active learning teaching philosophies looks like and provides easy-to-follow steps in order to fully implement them in your teaching.
