Recenzii

Whether new to the business of teaching in higher education or endowed with decades of experience, this volume will incite new perspectives on teaching and lay the groundwork for meaningful changes ... A truly inspiring companion and work of reference for undergraduate instructors in the liberal arts!
This is a tremendously useful volume that I wish I had had as a new faculty member. From classroom suggestions to program building, it's like having the best of mentors at your fingertips.
A great teaching resource with insightful reflections and practical recommendations.
Teaching in the Study of Religion and Beyond is arranged as a delightful A-Z compendium of practical wisdom about the contexts and conundrums of teaching and working in contemporary colleges and universities. Its contributors all just happen to work in the 'study of religion', but they bring transdisciplinary insights and advice relevant to every corner of campus.
