### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent for anyone teaching in HE
*by T***F on 15 October 2012*

I wasn't sure what to expect from this book as it is written by US authors from interviews conducted with US College professors. There are some differences between US and UK universities, and so I wasn't sure if the advice and inspiration would be fully relevant to me as an academic in a UK university, but I needn't have worried. All of the advice and inspirational examples are pretty relevant and the book makes for very inspired and interesting reading. The strengths of the book are that rather than just hearing about the author's views/advice on good teaching practice, the authoes conducted research with top-rated professors in the US across a range of disciplines and in the book they summarise this research with lots of examples, while trying to draw out more general advice from the examples that anyone teaching in HE could try to put into practice themselves. I found the examples were inspiring and thoughtful and I could see why they would help student engagment and learning. Could the book be better? Most certainly. At times it is hard to find exactly what you are looking for, and the book would have benefitted from better layout and structurung - mroe use of bullet point summaries or 'key points' boxes, that sort of thing. It would have also been great to have had a DVD with some video samples of the inspirational teaching or a link to a website where we could view video snippets, but that might have increased the cost of the book I guess. Overall, looking at this as an academic working in a British university, I found lots of interesting ideas to try out in my teaching, so from my perspective, this book delivered what it promised - I just wished that the wisdom was organsied a bit better.
