Description - Teaching Large Classes in Higher Education by Graham Gibbs
Over the past 10 years, the number of students enrolled in individual higher-education courses has risen dramatically. Consequently, new challenges are having to be met: course design and teaching methods must be modified if quality is to be maintained.;The editors of this stimulating collection have concentrated on case-study accounts by practising lecturers in universities and polytechnics who have significantly changed the delivery of their courses to accommodate the increased student-to-staff ratios that now prevail. These strategies are put forward as examples of best practice relevant both to the UK and mass higher-education systems elsewhere.;Issues examined in detail include broad strategic options; specific techniques for handling large classes; the staff and student experience of mass education; and how departments and institutions can help staff cope.
