This review is from: Teaching Introductory Psychology: Survival Tips from the Experts (Paperback)
I encountered this book in graduate school as I was struggling to learn how to teach- the insights, inspiration and guidelines presented by excellent professors in many different areas in the field of psychology makes this book indispensable. If you are a new faculty member, or a graduate student who has been dropped headfirst into teaching, this book can help you figure out the nuts and bolts of teaching, and points out many of the potential pitfalls (along with tips on how to avoid them!). If you are a seasoned professor of psychology, this book can help revitalize your passion for the field, and help you to develop further techniques on how to communicate that inspiration to your students.
