The Lecturer’s Toolkit is a wide-ranging, down-to-earth, practical resource for lecturers and teachers in universities and colleges.

Built around a central agenda of improving the quality of student learning, the Toolkit is outcomes-focused. Building on the strengths of its predecessors, this fourth edition includes strengthened emphasis on assessment and feedback, and designing large-group teaching for the digital age, when students can get easy access to a vast range of learning resource materials online. Coverage includes:

how students really learn;

designing assessment and feedback to enhance learning;

lectures in the digital age;

making small-group teaching work;

resource-based learning in the digital age;

looking after yourself;

challenges and reflections.

Fully updated and expanded, this fourth edition of the Toolkit will be an essential and flexible resource for every higher education professional.
