Inside the Undergraduate Teaching Experience book cover

“This book captures the voices of faculty engaged in the classroom in a fashion that I have not seen before. In the midst of a cacophony of works denouncing the professoriate as insensitive to problems of student learning (generally with little evidence), this study offers a glimpse into the real attitudes of a large group of instructors.”

—David Pace, coeditor of Decoding the Disciplines: Helping Students Learn Disciplinary Ways of Thinking
