Recenzii

"This edited volume will be a useful tool for the first-year graduate student who has to teach the course as well as for faculty who have taught the course for almost 20 years. Many of the issues discussed in Best Practices are similiar to issues that psychology faculty discuss for undergraduate and graduate psychology curricula." - PsycCRITIQUES
"...many teaching books appear to be designed for beginning instructors...this book is unique in that it will also appeal to instructors who have taught the course for years." - Kevin J. Apple, James Madison University, USA
"I suspect that most faculty will use it as a reference to which they will return again and again as they confront various problems in teaching the Intro course..." - Douglas A. Bernstein, University of South Florida, USA
