The Chicago handbook for teachers

"Unlike their counterparts on the secondary or primary school level, many who teach in colleges and universities have extensive training in their various disciplines, but surprisingly little instruction in the craft of teaching itself.". "The Chicago Handbook for Teachers is an extraordinarily helpful guide for all who face the challenge of putting together material for a course and then making it work. Representing teachers at all stages of their careers, the authors offer practical advice for almost any situation a new instructor or lecturer might face, from preparing a syllabus to managing classroom dynamics.". "Indispensable for new teachers and graduate students, The Chicago Handbook for Teachers is also a useful refresher for experienced professionals."--BOOK JACKET.
