Drawing upon interviews with 30 award-winning professors and 10 case studies,Successful College Teaching illustrates the art and science of excellent teaching.

A major portion examines and demystifies the creative and problem-solving processes of outstanding professors, offering a paradigm for the development of new faculty and rejuvenation of the experienced. Academics who evaluate college teaching are provided with a rationale and case study examples that will enable them to identify excellent teaching; new faculty and graduate teaching assistants will benefit from the variety of exceptional teaching strategies presented. The book explores the many current issues facing college educators and provides examples for dealing with unusual situations and diverse groups of students.
