商品描述
It is often a challenging and overwhelming transition to go from being a student to being a teacher. Many new faculty members of engineering and science have to make this dramatic transition in a very short time. In the same closing months of your Ph.D. program you are trying to complete your research, finish and defend your dissertation, find a job, move to a new location, and start a new job as a faculty member. If you are lucky, you've had the opportunity to serve as a teaching assistant and possibly have taught a university-level course. If you have served as a research assistant, your teaching opportunities may have been limited. Somehow, in this quick transition from student to teacher, one is supposed to become a good teacher and be ready for the first day of school. This book is intended as a basic primer on college-level teaching and learning for a new faculty member of engineering and applied science. New faculty members in other disciplines will find much of the information applicable to their area of expertise as well. First and foremost, this book is about learning and teaching. However, it also provides helpful information on related topics such as mentorship, student challenges, graduate students, tenure, and promotion and accreditation. This book is also intended as a reference for seasoned professionals. It is a good reference for those mentoring the next generation of college educators. Table of Contents: List of Figures / What makes a Great Teacher? / A little learning theory / Preparation for the first day of classes / Assessment / Beyond the first day
商品描述(中文翻譯)
從學生轉變為教師的過程往往是一個具有挑戰性且令人不知所措的過渡。許多工程和科學的新任教職員必須在非常短的時間內完成這一劇烈的轉變。在博士課程的最後幾個月，你需要完成研究、撰寫並辯護論文、找工作、搬到新地點，並開始新的教職工作。如果你幸運的話，可能有機會擔任教學助理，甚至教授過大學課程。如果你擔任過研究助理，你的教學機會可能會受到限制。在這個從學生到教師的快速轉變中，人們理應成為一名優秀的教師，並為開學的第一天做好準備。本書旨在為工程和應用科學的新任教職員提供大學級教學和學習的基本入門指南。其他學科的新任教職員也會發現許多資訊適用於他們的專業領域。首先，本書關於學習和教學。然而，它也提供了有關導師、學生挑戰、研究生、終身職、晉升和認證等相關主題的有用資訊。本書同樣適合作為資深專業人士的參考資料，對於指導下一代大學教育者的人士來說，是一本很好的參考書。目錄：圖表清單 / 什麼使一位偉大的教師？ / 一點學習理論 / 開學第一天的準備 / 評估 / 超越第一天
