Teaching History at University; Enhancing Learning and Understanding

Editorial Reviews
Peter Frederick, Wabash College
"Without question the definitive work available for university teachers of history. There is no other book like it.."

Review
This is a very stimulating book, by an experienced educator in history. The tone is tolerant and encouraging, while working steadily toward better teaching practice and offering, correctly, a central focus on historical understanding as the key goal. Discussions of student perspective, with some great quotes, complement attention to teaching approaches and assessment..
-Peter N. Stearns, George Mason University
