What the Best College Teachers Do by Ken Bain<\/small><\/h2>\r\nWhat makes a great teacher great? Who are the professors students remember long after graduation? This book, the conclusion of a fifteen-year study of nearly one hundred college teachers in a wide variety of fields and universities, offers valuable answers for all educators.\r\n\r\nThe short answer is\u2014it\u2019s not what teachers do, it\u2019s what they understand. Lesson plans and lecture notes matter less than the special way teachers comprehend the subject and value human learning. Whether historians or physicists, in El Paso or St. Paul, the best teachers know their subjects inside and out\u2014but they also know how to engage and challenge students and to provoke impassioned responses. Most of all, they believe two things fervently: that teaching matters and that students can learn.\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n

General Education Essentials by Paul Hanstedt<\/small><\/h2>\r\nEvery year, hundreds of small colleges, state schools, and large, research-oriented universities across the United States (and, increasingly, Europe and Asia) revisit their core and general education curricula, often moving toward more integrative models. And every year, faculty members who are highly skilled in narrowly defined fields ask two simple questions: \"Why?\" and \"How is this going to affect me?\"\r\n\r\nGeneral Education Essentials seeks to answer these and other questions by providing a much-needed overview of and a rationale for the recent shift in general education curricular design, a sense of how this shift can affect a faculty member's teaching, and an understanding of how all of this might impact course and student assessment.\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n[\/fruitful_tab]\r\n[fruitful_tab title=\"Articles\"]\r\n
