Taking College Teaching Seriously - Pedagogy Matters!

Fostering Student Success Through Faculty-Centered Practice Improvement

About this book

"The focus of this book on teaching in community college settings is particularly important given the expectations of student learning outcomes in today's 2-year institutions and the number of students at these colleges enrolled in developmental education courses. The authors of the book concentrate on the need to provide 'professional development of all faculty who teach the hardest to serve'. The focus on developmental course instructors offers strategies that can translate to other programs in community colleges. Their attention to faculty development builds on what the authors identify as the role of reflecting on teaching practices and on building competencies in faculty members regarding good classroom pedagogy."-- Community College Review
