Successful University Teaching in Times of Diversity cover

This book offers a lively, engaging and potentially transformative introduction to the ideas, insights and practical know-how that a modern university teacher requires. Bringing together contributors with extensive practical teaching experience as well as pedagogical expertise, it uses accessible language and real cases to explore everyday teaching challenges and provide strategies and techniques for stimulating deep and satisfying learning. This book is for anyone with the ambition to teach well at degree level.

I found Successful University Teaching in Times of Diversity enormously helpful. Written by proven experts in the field of university teaching and learning, it is easy to read, sensible, and to the point, with each chapter flowing logically into the next. Especially helpful from my point of view was the insight into common problems and mistakes, the insightful explanations of how students learn, and the stress given to the vital importance of having your student’s abilities uppermost in your mind at every stage: from course preparation to class discussions and essay feedback. An excellent book. * Dr Roderick Bailey, University of Oxford, UK *
This book presents a truly inspirational approach to teaching and learning. It should be recommended reading for new and experienced teachers alike, along with those charged with providing development opportunities that promote and support teaching excellence. * Lorraine Stefani, University of Auckland, New Zealand *
