Any great author knows how important it is to entice their readers as soon as possible. When we read and write the ultimate goal is to keep the attention of our audience. Skilled teachers can relate! In order to engage your students you must have a knack for stepping outside of the box. Sometimes that may require you to invest in the interests of your students, spend more time using a creative approach to introducing a targeted skill or concept, and providing an interesting background for those students that may not have the schema needed to comprehend fully. This book highlights ways that have been proven successful in my experiences working with urban students. I believe an engaging beginning is the prerequisite for great instruction.

Teaching as If Learning Matters: Pedagogies of Becoming by Next-Generation Faculty
<p>Teaching is an essential skill in becoming a faculty member in any institution of higher education. Yet how is that skill actually acquired by graduate students? <i>Teaching as if Learning Matters</i> collects first-person narratives from graduate students and new PhDs that explore how the skills required to teach at a college level are developed. It examines the key issues that graduate students face as they learn to teach effectively when in fact they are still learning and being taught. <br /> <br />Featuring contributions from over thirty graduate students from a variety of disciplines at Indiana University, <i>Teaching as if Learning Matters</i> allows these students to explore this topic from their own unique perspectives. They reflect on the importance of teaching to them personally and professionally, telling of both successes and struggles as they learn and embrace teaching for the first time in higher education.</p>
