<p><b>A freshly updated edition featuring research-based teaching techniques that faculty in any discipline can easily implement </b></p><p>Research into how we learn can help facilitate better student learning¿if we know how to apply it. <i>Small Teaching</i> fills the gap in higher education literature between the primary research in cognitive theory and the classroom environment. In this book, James Lang presents a strategy for improving student learning with a series of small but powerful changes that make a big difference?many of which can be put into practice in a single class period. These are simple interventions that can be integrated into pre-existing techniques, along with clear descriptions of how to do so. Inside, you¿ll find brief classroom or online learning activities, one-time interventions, and small modifications in course design or student communication. These small tweaks will bring your classroom into alignment with the latest evidence in cognitive research. </p><
