505 _a"Teaching is one of the essential activities of a a civilized society. Every generation must pass on the immense accumulated heritage of the past by teaching, sometimes in formal situations and sometimes informally. Moreover, most of us, at one time or another in our lives, serve as teachers - in our roles as parents and coaches or in the workplace, presenting new procedures at a meeting or training new employees. This course, The Art of Teaching, is designed primarily for classroom teachers, but it will also help anyone who is interested in teaching or who is sometimes required to teach in his or her profession. By and large, the principles of good teaching remain the same in any learning situation. The Art of Teaching represents somewhat of a departure from the usual Teaching Company format in that it includes video interviews with six of the Teaching Company's master professors - all dedicated, award-winning teachers - and with a number of students, who are often the real experts on what's good and bad in education. Each lecture includes a toolkit for teachers that highlights practical suggestions they can take into the classroom and begin using right away. Lectures 1 and 2 of the course introduce the topic of teaching as a career, the broad range of learners teachers might encounter, and the essential qualities of a good teacher. From there, the next 14 lectures turn to practical teaching matters, including developing an appropriate teaching persona; planning the work before the class begins; managing aspects of teacher-student relationships; using high-tech and low-tech tools effectively; teaching time management, reading, and note-taking skills; encouraging students to participate; as well as coaching and one-on-one teaching to name a few. In Lecture 17, we consider students' views of how they learn best, what they like and dislike about teachers, and how they think teaching could be improved. This lecture emphasizes the need for teachers to put themselves in the students' shoes and try to view the teacher-student encounter from the other side. In Lecture 18, we look at teacher assessments of students, including various types of exams, and student evaluations of teachers. Lecture 19 discusses various methods for maintaining your enthusiasm as a teacher over the course of your career. Lecture 20 explores the challenges of teaching, especially for college professors, most of whom have never been formally trained in teaching. Lecture 21 offers numerous suggestions for injecting creativity into the classroom by engaging students with unusual assignments or - surprise! - sending them to the library. The last three lectures of the course step back and take a broader look at the field of education and the qualities that make a good teacher. Lecture 22 exposes some common myths and half-truths about education, such as the idea that learning is easy or that most people are willing learners. In Lecture 23, we look at some of the common characteristics of our master teachers and learn how they feel about their work. Finally, in Lecture 24, we look at the role of teachers in preserving and enriching our world, both materially and culturally. With the rapid pace of innovation we experience today and the increasing emphasis on lifelong learning, the contributions of teachers to society are unlikely to diminish." (Scope, p.1-2)
