Recenzii
Closing the teaching, learning and knowledge gap is at the very essence of A Guide to Better Teaching: Skills, Advice, and Evaluation for College and University Professors. This well-written and researched book not only applies to academia, but to the business community. To survive and thrive in the era of change we need to train and develop our people. This book will become your most important guide to helping you influence workplace understanding and knowledge through better teaching.
Bravo, Leila Jahangiri and Tom Mucciolo for this practical, insightful guide for teaching us-the 'teachers'-how to develop a learners' perspective. Your book is helpful on many levels. Your years of research and the addition of easy-to-follow tools reinforce your premise that teaching, leadership, training and public speaking have many overlapping skills. By analyzing opportunities for improvement in the areas of perspective, skills and assessment, you have provided a personal and professional development bible for college and university professors at all levels. This seasoned professor will keep the book on top of my desk.
Jahangiri and Mucciolo have written an accessible, comprehensive, and practical guide for anyone who teachers. Whether the reader is a new teacher or a seasoned professional, he or she will find valuable ideas for improving teaching practices and learning outcomes. A Guide to Better Teaching is not simply a one-time read to explore effective teaching, but serves as a career reference from which one can gain new insights time and time again.
If you desire to become a better teacher or trainer, I highly recommend you add A Guide to Better Teaching to your professional toolkit. Leila Jahangiri and Tom Mucciolo have managed to synthesize multiple points of insight on effective teaching into a valuable and informative read. Their assessment methodology is particularly unique and can offer clear direction to those wishing to improve their overall presentation effectiveness.
Jahangiri and Mucciolo base their suggestions and recommendation not only on their experience, but also on research, identifying the barriers to overcome in educational interactions, while providing the best and most enjoyable experience for both the teacher and learner. The style of writing and the use of vignettes make this book a very enjoyable read and extremely instructive. The value and benefits that can be gained by reading this book will not only help teachers at colleges and universities, but by all those who want to continually improve their skills at interacting with learners.
