It is always Phil Race's pragmatic advice that I hear whenever I'm with students - particularly when things get tricky - and it's never let me down. This fifth edition of The Lecturer's Toolkit is truly the complete resource for anyone working with students in higher education - for those just starting out in their teaching career, for those looking to enrich their students' experiences (and their own!), and for those shaping and leading learning and teaching in universities and across the sector. I have one book on my desk - and this is it.
Professor Ruth Pickford, NTF, Director of Learning and Teaching, Leeds Beckett University, UK
Professor Race captures what's needed most by busy teaching staff under enormous pressure as we head to the 2020s: opportunities to consider what makes engaged learning more likely, and prompts to 'pause for thought' as to what might work best with your students in your discipline. As important, this toolkit prompts you to manage your own wellbeing. When so much around us is changing, this book is like having a wise and calming mentor at your elbow.
Beverley Oliver, Professor Emerita and former Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Deakin University, Australia
Phil Race has succeeded in preparing the essential handbook for contemporary higher education professionals. He has reimagined the contents for a post-digital era in which online is just another tool in our kit. Every chapter is informed by the very latest pedagogical research but presented in the accessible style of a practitioner who practises what he teaches and cares deeply how we assess.
Simon J. Lancaster, NTF, University of East Anglia, UK
If you are just starting out in teaching - read this book! If you are a seasoned professional - read this book! If, like me, you benefited from previous editions - read this book!

Phil Race is unquestionably a rock star in the community of post secondary education, he is one of the giants in teaching and learning.

He distills half a century of experience into easily digested prose, replete with compassion, wisdom and a healthy dollop of common sense. No instructor should be without 'The Lecturer's Toolkit'.
