Great content but expensive and doesn't hold up
In terms of content, this book is excellent. It provides many helpful suggestions on a variety of topics for success in the classroom. It is backed by current literature and is easy to apply to your own personal situation. Based purely on the content, I would rate this book a 5.I rated it a 3 , however, for two main reasons. First, there book is expensive. They talk in the content about how you choice of textbook for your class should take cost into consideration, yet this book is expensive given the size of it. Additionally, I've only had it for a month and the binding is falling apart. I take excellent care of my books (e.g. I don't send the covers back, it gets stored goat on my desk, etc) so there is no reason for the binding to be breaking apart. Pretty upsetting for a new $100 book.Overall, this is a great resource for teachers but I recommend trying to buy a second hand copy to save some money.

I loved the skills and tips in the book
I loved the skills and tips in the book. A good building block for people wanting to go into the teaching field. HOWEVER... the book i got only had 20 chapters. It stops at page 296 and starts again at page 361. If i had the full book I would give a higher rating. Very disappointing.

Perfect summary of teaching theories and best practices
For an adjunct with a day job, this text is profound. It provides many teaching theories in bite-sized chunks. It's all actionable. Take what you like, make it your own, and start experimenting. During semesters it helps to flip through various sections on lecturing, facilitating discussion and getting students involved as quick refreshers.

Overpriced
This book is completely over-priced. Furthermore, there are other cheaper books available that contain more useful and practical information (e..g University Teaching in Focus by Hunt and Chalmers).
