Promoting Active Learning : Strategies for the College Classroom	Chet Meyers, Thomas B. Jones	Cloth/ 224	1-55542-524-0	Jossey-Bass	April 1993	3
Summary: This book draws on classroom experiences and faculty suggestions in providing a practical guide to teaching strategies to encourage active learning in the college classroom. A wide range of teaching tools which ask students to apply what they are learning are considered, including problem-solving exercises, cooperative student projects, informal group work, simulations, case studies, and role playing. Additionally, the book discusses how various small-group exercises, simulations, and case studies can be blended with the technological and human resources available outside the classroom. The book is divided into three parts. Part 1 surveys the general subject of active learning and why it makes sense as a teaching strategy. Part 2 considers four major active-learning teaching strategies in more depth: informal small groups, cooperative student projects, simulations, and case studies. Part 3 explores how reading assignments, outside resource persons, and electronic media can be successfully integrated with active-learning strategies in the classroom. Contains approximately 150 references and an index.

The Course Syllabus: A Learning Centered Approach	Judith Grunert, Robert M. Diamond	Paper/112	1-882982-18-5	Anker Publishing	Sept 1999	3
Summary: This best selling practical manual presents why and how to construct a syllabus that shifts from what you will cover (the traditional syllabus) to one that reflects what tools and information you can provide students to help them learn (the learning-centered syllabus). The book’s underlying assumption is that good teaching helps students understand how to actively acquire, use, and extend knowledge in an ongoing process of learning. The book’s goal is to assist anyone interested in designing a learning-centered syllabus to plan and construct one. Contents include: Definition of a learning-centered syllabus Planning the syllabus, starting with developing a rationale Eight principles of designing a course that fosters critical thinking Checklist for the content of a learning-centered syllabus Using email, listservs, and the World Wide Web (WWW) Actual samples of contents of a learning-centered syllabus: letter to students; purpose of course; course descriptions, goals, and objectives; resources for students; readings; evaluation and self-evaluation; learning contract form; learning style inventory; purpose of syllabus; how to study for this course Helpful references and suggested readings.

Using Student Teams in the Classroom: A Faculty Guide	Ruth Federman Stein , Sandra Hurd	Paper/222 pages	1-882982-37-1	Anker Publishing	Oct 2000	3
Summary: Teamwork builds cooperation, problem solving, active learning, and responsibility; such skills are increasingly important in both the classroom and in the workplace. For faculty who want to actively engage students with both the material and one another by using teamwork, this book answers many questions including: What happens when one student dominates the group? What do we do about students who sit back and are passive or resistant? How can tasks be designed to elicit full participation and engagement of every student in the group? How do we evaluate group work? The examples in this book are drawn from a wide variety of fields, including architecture, biology, ceramics, engineering, and English. The range of imaginative strategies – all of which include students working in groups – is evidence of the wealth of ways in which cooperative learning can be incorporated in college classrooms. The authors marry diverse examples and practical applications with solid explanations of the caveats of cooperative learning and a deep respect for how such pedagogical changes will challenge long-held beliefs and practices. Contents include: Teamwork theory and discussion Technology and teamwork Resolving conflicts Team evaluation Teaching tips Teamwork in the disciplines – examples form 20 disciplines Articles and resources on small group performance, connecting students and problems, and cooperative learning.

Thinking About Teaching & Learning: Developing Habits of Learning in First Year College & University Students	Robert Leamnson	Paper/ 169	1579220134	Stylus Publishing, LLC	April 1999	3
Summary: Here is a compelling read for every teacher in higher education who wants to refresh or reexamine his or her classroom practice. Starting with a summary of recent discoveries about how the brain works and his own useful definitions of teaching, learning and education, the author proceeds to the practical details of instruction that teachers are most interested in -- the things that make or break teaching. Practical and thoughtful, and based on forty years of teaching, wide reading and much reflection, Robert Leamnson provides teachers with a map to develop their own teaching philosophy, and effective nuts-and-bolts teaching advice. His approach is particularly useful for teachers facing a cohort of first year students less prepared for college and university. He is concerned to develop in his students’ habits and skills that will equip them for a lifetime of learning. He is especially alert to the psychology of students. He also understands, and has experienced, the typical frustration and exasperation teachers feel when students ingeniously elude their teachers’ loftiest goals and strategies. Most important, he has good advice about how to cope with the challenge. A biology professor, Robert Leamnson's avocation is the mind and what affects it. Having attended and contributed to national conferences on teaching, he is familiar with the best of recent and traditional thought on the subject. His counsels in this book are equally valuable for teachers of the humanities, the social sciences, and the natural sciences. Informed by practical good sense, the fruits of the selected best of educational research, a love for his work, and love for students, Leamnson has written one of the most useful studies of teaching to appear in many years. The Table of Contents includes the following chapters: The Biological Basis of Learning: Learning as brain change, rather than brain use Language: On the questionable utility of unexpressed ideas Today's First-Year Students: Culture, motivation and preparation Teaching and Pedagogy: How the way we teach affects the way students learn The Classroom: The classroom as dynamic arena - What students are really doing Writing and other Technologies: Technology, old, and new, and as a means to an end

Summary: Teaching with Technology is a gold mine of specific ways in which instructors may use technology to enhance teaching and learning. Contributors to this book are instructors whose institutions are members of the Learning Technology Consortium (LTC), a group of universities which are committed to providing strong technology and faculty support programs, that include: Indiana University, University of Delaware, University of Florida, University of Georgia, University of Notre Dame, University of Pittsburgh, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, and Wake Forest University. The book is organized into three parts: Part I introduces the concept and practice of teaching with technology and is especially useful to those redesigning traditional courses into ones that integrate technology. Part II describes the computing environments at each of the universities featured in this book, providing a contextual framework for the courses taught with technology that are presented in Part III. Part III contains 52 accounts of teaching with technology by teaching faculty from LTC. Each author describes a specific course, the technology tools used, the educational notions behind course design, the course outcomes, the measured assessments, and the lessons learned. The essays are easily accessible and grouped by discipline: physical sciences, mathematics, and engineering; biological and health sciences; languages, literature, and the humanities; art and music; and business, education, and social sciences.

Creating Learning Communities A Practical Guide to Winning Support, Organizing for Change, and Implementing Programs	Nancy S. Shapiro, Jodi H. Levine	Paper/ 240	0-787-94462-9	Jossey-Bass	Sept 1999	3
Summary: "One of the most powerful ideas in higher education today is transforming campuses into learning communities. At last, Shapiro and Levine have given us-faculty, students, and administrators—a handbook on how to accomplish this. It is one of those too rare and much-needed volumes on translating theory into practice by authors who have actually done it." —Arthur Levine, president, Teachers College, Columbia University "Shapiro and Levine convince us that learning communities address what we now know about how students learn inside and outside the classroom. Read this book for conceptual rationale, practical answers to implementation questions, and passionate voices that speak for a social contract among students, faculty members, and institutions, a contract enacted and assessed for the benefit of all." —Barbara L. Cambridge, director, Teaching Initiatives, AAHE In recent years, learning communities—a curricular instructional innovation that integrates different facets of the undergraduate experience to enhance and enrich learning—have become the most promising new strategy for promoting student success and satisfaction in college. Learning communities give students the chance to deepen and diversify their education, connect with others who share their interests, and actively participate in the educational process. Creating Learning Communities is a practical, insightful guide to the essentials of this rewarding new program area, including how to design, fund, staff, manage, and integrate learning communities into different campuses. Drawing from their own experience as well as from experiences of campuses around the country, Nancy S. Shapiro and Jodi H. Levine provide both a sound theoretical rationale and nuts-and-bolts advice on the logistical, administrative, financial, and turf-related issues of creating an effective learning community. They show how to ensure that such communities embody and fulfill the objectives for which they were established. Readers will discover a pragmatic blueprint for creating a learning community that can be adapted to almost any campus culture—including specific guidance on planning committees, samples of course syllabi, monthly activity calendars, and other operational program models.
