I've only read 2 chapters (7 & 8) and I already would not recommend this book, especially to someone who has been teaching for awhile. Many of the suggestions are common sense and a lot of the information could be significantly condensed. Furthermore, there are several suggestions that I do not believe are best practice. For instance, the author suggests that students rate their understanding and then the teacher should ask those who rated themselves high, medium, low to stand up. A second suggestion is that a "teacher should be prepared to verbally confront the student in front of the group." I feel that both of these suggestions would cause embarrassment to a student. I have to read this for a program that I'm in, otherwise I would immediately return this to the library and look for another resource.

This has some good ideas. I didn't enjoy the first section, but I started skipping certain things and then I liked it more. I put in quite a few tabs of things I want to revisit at some point.
