The Missing Course: Everything They Never Taught You about College Teaching
This book argues that an academic culture that prioritizes research over teaching has put many instructors – especially early-career faculty – in difficult positions.
Both a practical guide to the realities of university teaching and a sober reflection on the higher education system, this book argues that an academic culture that prioritizes research over teaching has put many instructors – especially early-career faculty – in difficult positions. David Gooblar proposes a range of practical teaching methods, from active learning strategies to course design techniques, all grounded in student-centered classroom principles. According to the author, the measure of teaching success is no longer how well instructors lecture, but how effectively students learn. The book also tells students what they should truly be learning in college.
