There are more than 700,000 adjunct professors in over 4,200 institutions of higher education. Many lack a practical resource and formal pedagogical training on how to teach and evaluate college students. With that information they can have the confidence and training that they can be effective instructors--no matter their discipline or experience. The Adjunct Professor's Complete Guide to Teaching College provides an illuminating look into collegiate instruction, how to actively engage students and the proven techniques that enhance learning. This book is for everyone who has ever wanted to teach a college course, but were unsure of where and how to start.
