Strategies for Teaching Large Classes Effectively in Higher Education
helps educators effectively harness the power of the large class to support student learning. The book features advice from instructors across disciplines, results from the initiatives they've tried, and scholarship to support their claims. The text emphasizes the ideas that a large class represents an opportunity and scholarly teaching can occur in a class of any size. The book begins with practical advice for planning ahead, increasing the efficiency of the administration of a large class, implementing pedagogical strategies, and using physical demonstrations to increase engagement. Later chapters focus on building community with students through the application of technology and gathering feedback. Instructors learn various approaches to course development and student assessment, including active learning, the flipped classroom method, concept sketches, and two-stage exams. The book concludes with chapters dedicated to leveraging technology to promote innovation, interactivity, and learning outside the classroom. Featuring experience-driven and scholarly insight,
is an ideal resource for instructors who wish to successfully engage large classes and provide students with an optimal environment for learning.
