Summary

The authors seek to uncover the cultural and philosophical underpinnings of the teaching-learning experience and the dynamics of curricular responses to changes within our society. They recognize the central role of faculty in delivering instruction in ways that are most understandable to culturally, gender-, and age-mixed groups of students. Faculty members must strive to understand and implement teaching styles and techniques that will best provide their students with a rich and challenging education.
