Case method teaching immerses students in realistic business situations--which include incomplete information, time constraints, and conflicting goals. The class discussion inherent in case teaching is well known for stimulating the development of students' critical thinking skills, yet instructors often need guidance on managing that class discussion to maximize learning. Teaching with Cases focuses on practical advice for instructors that can be easily implemented. It covers how to plan a course, how to teach it, and how to evaluate it. The book is organized by the three elements required for a great case-based course: 1) advance planning by the instructor, including implementation of a student contract; 2) how to make leading a vibrant case discussion easier and more systematic; and 3) planning for student evaluation after the course is complete. Teaching with Cases is ideal for anyone interested in case teaching, whether basing an entire course on cases, using cases as a supplement, or simply using discussion facilitation techniques.

Are you a fun teacher? Or has your teaching slid into the same old everyday routine? Jazz up your approach with the innovative techniques found in Oxymoron?, and transform your classroom from boring to exciting! Through his years of teaching, author and teacher Matthew Bryant has discovered a need for teachers who are able to motivate students as well as pique their interest in learning. This strikes at the very heart of education and is something that numerous schools and teacher training programs lack. Many teachers know they are not fun, but they lack a solution to the problem. Oxymoron? is a practical guide for any educator who is currently teaching grades kindergarten through high school. Using personal experiences from the classroom and recollections from when he was in school, Bryant focuses on how simple changes in an educator's routine can effect a student's perception about the teacher-and about school. If you are not reaching your full potential as an educator, then Oxymoron? can help you transform your routine from dull to inspired!

Gathering concepts and techniques borrowed from outstanding college professors, The Joy of Teaching provides helpful guidance for new instructors developing and teaching their first college courses. Award-winning professor Peter Filene proposes that teaching should not be like a baseball game in which the instructor pitches ideas to students to see whether they hit or strike out. Ideally, he says, teaching should resemble a game of Frisbee in which the teacher invites students to catch ideas and pass them on. Rather than prescribe any single model for success, Filene lays out the advantages and disadvantages of various pedagogical strategies, inviting new teachers to make choices based on their own personalities, values, and goals. Filene tackles everything from syllabus writing and lecture planning to class discussions, grading, and teacher-student interactions outside the classroom. The book's down-to-earth, accessible style makes it appropriate for new teachers in all fields. Instructors in the humanities, the social sciences, and the natural sciences will all welcome its invaluable tips for successful teaching and learning.
