Overview and
Basic Information
Education is a journey of
discovery for both the learner and the teacher. There can be a lot of
twists and
turns along the way. And sometimes it’s not too clear if you’re even
headed in the right direction.
More than 45
different authors stand ready to assist you by sharing their research on
the very best practices to improve both teaching and learning in the
fourth edition of the Faculty Guidebook. This invaluable resource
will keep you on abreast of the latest research and scholarly thinking
on such topics as mentoring, assessment and evaluation, instructional
design, program assessment, and creating quality learning environments.
These topics are packaged in short, comprehensive two to four page
modules, making it easy to quickly absorb, research, apply, and
disseminate new teaching/learning knowledge and classroom innovations.
The
Faculty Guidebook will enhance your understanding of the various
contexts of education and development: professional, learner,
intellectual, institutional, and self development, serving as an
authoritative resource that fosters transformation in these five areas.
The fourth
edition of the Faculty Guidebook contains one hundred forty-six
modules, blending theory and practice in an easy-to-use format. But as
valuable as these modules are, the true value of the Faculty
Guidebook goes far beyond what is contained between its covers. We
are justifiably proud of the scholarship it contains, but also excited
by the promise of the Faculty Guidebook. As you use this handbook
to help with your professional development, your growth will have a
powerful impact on your colleagues, your students, and those you mentor.
Imagine this kind of transformation on an institutional scale—this is
the promise of the Faculty Guidebook.
Single copy,
personal, or site license purchases make it easy to start on the path to
professional development. |
