Description
How to Teach Adults provides a guide for new instructors studying on their own and helps teacher-trainers in college and graduate school programs cover what their students need to know to effectively manage a classroom. Examples of practical topics covered include making sure new faculty include everything they need to put in their class syllabus, or helping them write a quiz. This reader-friendly book gives down-to-earth tips and checklists on such topics as facilitating discussions and connecting with adult students, includes a glossary on teaching vocabulary, and covers administrative topics such as choosing the right textbook.
