Summary:A university professor for some 20 years, Forsyth (Virginia Commonwealth U., Richmond) admits that he is not a born teacher, but has learned to be effective through the hard lessons<-->and self- evaluation<-->that come with experience. Aimed primarily at the psychologist educator, Forsyth's text breaks down college-level teaching into its behavioral components. Coverage includes prepping, lecturing, student-centered learning, testing, grading, classroom management, using technology in teaching, teacher assessment, and developing a teaching portfolio. The author reviews relevant theory and research, but the emphasis is on its application in the educational setting.
