ASHE Handbook on Teaching and Instructional Resources. An Instructional Resource Handbook for Courses in the Field of Higher Education.
Gardiner, John J., Ed.
An instructional resource handbook for graduate-level courses in the field of higher education is presented. Twenty-two members of a national higher education network wrote the first essay on "Course Syllabi as Instructional Resources," which reports on a survey of faculty in higher education programs and specifically on course emphases, major resources in use, syllabi models, and recommendations. Additional contents are: Robert Birnbaum's essay "Using Games and Simulations in Higher Education Programs"; James L. Ratcliff's essay "Telecommunications and Computer Databases," which focuses on uses in higher education and includes a bibliography and information on resources; John J. Gardiner's essay, "Associations as Instructional Resources," which identifies Washington-based associations that provide resources for use within specific areas of higher education; "Higher Education as a Field of Study: An Annotated Bibliography" by Judy Diane Grace which covers over 60 works useful to faculty and students; "Teaching in Postsecondary Education; An Annotated Bibliography" by Robert J. Menges, which lists over 100 professional journals and reviews approximately 180 other resources available on teaching higher education; information on videotape resources in "Shaping the Future of Higher Education: A Learning and Research Tool"; and a review by 22 individuals on The National Center for Research to Improve Postsecondary Teaching and Learning (NCRIPTAL).
