From the publisher

Given the increased accountability at the college and university level, one of the most promising ways for faculty at institutions of higher education to improve their teaching is to capitalize upon their skills as researchers.

This valuable resource equips faculty with the skills to collect and use different types of research evidence to improve teaching and learning in any college and university classroom.

Special Features:

  • Chapter openers highlight the questions and issues that will be addressed in each chapter.
  • Recurring text boxes provide authentic examples from actual research studies, student work, and instructor reflections.
  • Coverage of challenges, key successes, and lessons learned from classroom research presents a nuanced and complete understanding of the process.
