"Teaching is a critical skill for scientists in the academy but one that is hardly emphasized in their professional training. And much of the information that exists about teaching and learning is so full of offputting pedagogical jargon that science teachers can't or won't read it. For years Terry McGlynn has been addressing the need for practical and accessible advice for college science teachers through his blog Small Pond Science, and now he has gathered this advice into a short book. After an introductory chapter about the general principles that teachers should consider in their approach to the classroom, the book covers practical topics ranging from creating a syllabus and developing grading rubrics to mastering learning management systems and ensuring safety during lab and fieldwork. It also offers advice on cultivating productive relationships with students, teaching assistants, and departmental colleagues. Although aimed primarily at those just beginning their careers across the full spectrum of STEM disciplines, McGlynn's advice will also reinvigorate many teachers who have been working in the classroom for years without this kind of pedagogical training"--
