An Evidence-based Guide to College and University Teaching: Developing the Model Teacher

Paperback | English

By (author): Aaron S. Richmond Guy A. Boysen Regan A. R. Gurung

What makes a good college teacher? This book provides an evidence- based answer to that question by presenting a set of model teaching characteristics that define what makes a good college teacher. Based on six fundamental areas of teaching competency known as Model Teaching Characteristics outlined by The Society for the Teaching of Psychology (STP), this book describes how college faculty from all disciplines and at all levels of experience can use these characteristics to evaluate, guide, and improve their teaching. Evidence based research supports the inclusion of each characteristic, each of which is illustrated through example, to help readers master the skills. Readers learn to evaluate their teaching abilities by providing guidance on what to document and how to accumulate and organize the evidence. Two introductory chapters outline the model teaching characteristics followed by six chapters, each devoted to one of the characteristics: training, instructional methods, course content, assessment, syllabus construction, and student evaluations.

The book:

-Features in each chapter self-evaluation surveys that help readers identify gaps between the model characteristics and their own teaching, case studies that illustrate common teaching problems, discussion questions that encourage critical thinking, and additional readings for further exploration.

-Discusses the need to master teaching skills such as collaborative learning, listening, and using technology as well as discipline-specific knowledge.

-Advocates for the use of student-learning outcomes to help teachers better evaluate student performance based on their achievement of specific learning goals.

-Argues for the development of learning objectives that reflect the core of the discipline''s theories and applications, strengthen basic liberal arts skills, and infuse ethical and diversity issues.

-Discusses how to solicit student feedback and utilize these evaluations to improve teaching.

Intended for professional development or teacher training courses offered in masters and doctoral programs in colleges and universities, this book is also an invaluable resource for faculty development centers, college and university administrators, and college teachers of all levels and disciplines, from novice to the most experienced, interested in becoming more effective teachers.
