Nilson (teaching effectiveness and innovation, Clemson U.) gives practical advice on preparing for classes, including ways to develop ironclad syllabi; setting expectations of and for students, including managing incivility; preserving academic honesty amongst a student population which is simply not interested in it; identifying varieties of learning and developing teaching strategies; teaching problem solving; and assessing outcomes. In this new edition Nilson includes information on the Internet and other technologies, course portfolios, and ways to get students to do readings.
