Learning How to Teach in Higher Education is intended for beginning teachers in higher education, but it is also an excellent reference work for more experienced teachers who are looking for practical tips or a theoretical foundation.
The book covers four themes:
The focus is on campus-based education; the interaction between teachers and students in a physical environment. There is also ample attention to online and/or blended forms of education. Using examples, diagrams, models and skills sheets, the authors provide direct support for questions from everyday teaching practice.
The book can be used in professionalization courses and learning paths for teachers, examiners, and student advisors in higher education, such as the Basic and Senior Teaching Qualification (BKO, BDB, SKO in Dutch), the Basic and Senior Qualification for Examiners (the BKE and SKE in Dutch), and the Basic and Senior Qualification for Study Advisers (the BKS and SKS in Dutch).
