Teaching Strategies for the College Classroom: A Collection of Faculty Articles is a practical, classroom-tested “tool kit” for faculty members who would like to develop their teaching practice. The 35 articles are drawn from the pages of The Teaching Professor newsletter and are written by college faculty for college faculty. They contain concrete pedagogical strategies that have been tested in the authors’ classrooms and together form a handbook of classroom strategies. There are articles on:•Honoring (and challenging) students’ beliefs•Improving student focus•Introducing a syllabus •Balancing control of the classroom with freedom of inquiry and expression•Establishing the relevance of course material•Creating an environment in which students can feel safe •Conducting the final day of classEdited by Maryellen Weimer, Ph.D.—editor of The Teaching Professor, author of numerous books and articles, and award-winning professor emeritus of teaching and learning at Penn State Berks—this collection is an important resource for faculty at all career stages. For newer instructors, it’s an accessible introduction to the proven teaching methods of more than a score of highly accomplished educators. For experienced teachers, the book provides a range of perspectives on age-old challenges and ideas for addressing some more current ones, such as how to deal with a growing sense of entitlement among students. For all faculty members, it provides inspiration and an affirmation of the critical work they do in their classrooms every day.Teaching Strategies for the College Classroom focuses on methods that can be easily implemented in the classroom. It is organized into four chapters:Chapter 1:The Start of a Successful SemesterChapter 2:Building Rapport with StudentsChapter 3: Managing Challenging BehaviorChapter 4:Strategies for Student Engagement An emphasis on specific, practical information makes the book a uniquely valuable faculty resource. Readers will learn many classroom strategies, including:•Four strategies for creating a positive learning environment•Ten tips for a successful first day of class •Six keys to building rapport•Four solutions to the civility problem•Nineteen elements of a “behavior contract” •Four principles of successful classroom management One author explains his innovative use of color-coded cards to promote participation; another employs tiered levels of student presentations to increase engagement; a third describes the appointment of “daily experts” on subject matter.Teaching Strategies for the College Classroom presents a comprehensive look at sound pedagogical practices. It is accessible, actionable material covering a broad spectrum of classroom issues. Throughout the book, readers will find some aspects of conventional wisdom affirmed and some challenged. There is a well-made case for being strict with disruptive students, while another contributor offers a persuasive argument for cell phones in the classroom! Readers will discover innovative ways of resolving thorny issues: For instance, one article demonstrates how instructor and student goals for a class, while rarely identical, can often be achieved.All of the articles in this book are compiled from The Teaching Professor newsletter, a publication dedicated to the art and science of teaching since its inception in 1987. The newsletter is published by Magna Publications, which was founded in 1972 and is recognized as one of the country’s foremost providers of faculty development materials.Bulk Purchases To purchase multiple print copies of this book, visit: www.MagnaGroupBooks.com

Special Edition Teaching Strategies for the College Classroom: A Collection of Faculty Articles with Free EASY Reading!

"Teaching Strategies for the College Classroom" contains four chapters of 8-10 articles each. Each article is short, practical, and completable in one brief sitting. (Perfect for instructors with very little time for professional development!) I have found at least one simple-to-apply idea in each article! The entries are drawn from articles published over the past ten years or so in "The Teaching Professor" newsletter. Even regular readers of the newsletter may find something new in this collection.That being said, there is some room for improvement here. First, the assumption in these articles is a face-to-face classroom setting. However, many strategies can be applied to blended and online settings as well. Some editorial notation of such connections would make each entry even more practical for today's college instructor. (I've noted some such connections on my public Kindle notes on this book. Public notes from all readers are available at: https://kindle.amazon.com/work/teaching-strategies-college-classroom-ebook/B00BUYLKPO/B00BUYLKPO) Second, there are occasional allusions to research findings associated with a given teaching strategy, but there are no specifics given that would enhance credibility and allow an interested reader to follow-up with the research. Third, since the collected articles were written over a span of some years, there is the occasional "dated" reference (e.g., one author refers to students in class updating their MySpace friends list!). Editing such references to include contemporary analogues where appropriate would prevent entries from being dismissed as irrelevant to today's classroom.Even without such enhancements, though, this ebook offers much to assist college instructors in reflecting upon and improving their teaching practice.Note: I was offered a preview copy of this ebook at a discounted price in exchange for my "honest opinions" in this online review.
