Editorial Reviews
Review
"I've read countless books on teaching strategies over the years, and I can't think of one that compares--in depth, breadth, accessibility, and practicality--to this one. Tools for Teaching has much to say to teachers of all ranks, disciplines, and institutions." (Mary Deane Sorcinelli, director, Center for Teaching, University of Massachusetts, Amherst)
"A 'tool chest' of strategies for those who are seeking ways to make their teaching more effective. This book is the kind of resource that will wind up not on faculty members' bookshelves but on their desks and in their briefcases." (Larry A. Braskamp, dean of the College of Education, University of Illinois, Chicago)

A rich compendium of classroom-tested strategies and suggestions designed to improve the teaching practice of beginning, midcareer, and senior faculty members. Forty-nine teaching tools cover both traditional tasks--writing a course syllabus, delivering a lecture--and newer, broader concerns, such as responding to diversity and using technology.
