Summary

Syracuse University was one of the first major universities to develop a summer internship program to train the hundreds of new teaching assistants appointed each year. An outgrowth of that program, this book contains essays that represent a thoughtful effort by experienced teachers--many of whom have been involved with the national Preparing Future Faculty program--to explore various ways of engaging, encouraging, and stimulating students to learn. Topics cover lecturing, leading discussions, designing laboratory and studio courses, reaching for diversity, using technology, assessing students learning, and service learning.
