New Strategies in College Teaching

New Strategies in College Teaching: Succeeding in Today's Academic World focuses on the key issues of being a professor in today's world by offering chapters excerpted from eight Allyn and Bacon higher education books. Many societal factors, including the changing student population, the increased significance of consumerism within higher education, the infusion of technology into today's society, and calls for increased accountability for learning outcomes, have changed higher education. This compilation adresses the ramifications of these and other issues and provides grounded insights and strategies that successful professors at all levels of higher education are employing. Included is an appendix exploring the issues of course management systems and Allyn and Bacon's CourseCompass, in particular, as an example of an effective program for faculty. It offers information on what these systems are, their value, how to use them, and their features. --- from book's back cover
