Description

Recent calls for drastic improvement in the quality of teaching in higher education have created an urgent need for texts that can convey the experience of better teaching methods to practising or intending teachers who are unfamiliar with specialist educational literature. Written by academic geographers and educationalists conscious of a need to raise standards in geographical higher education, this is avowedly a manual of good practice, identifying both the deficiencies of existing teaching methods and suggesting possible improvements.
