Watermarks: A Teaching/Guiding Primer for Part- & Full-Time College Faculty Paperback - 2012
by Don Prickel Ph. D.; Ruth Stiehl Ed D.
From the publisher
The only teaching improvement text that uses fable & metaphor and READS LIKE A NOVEL! WATERMARKS is the perfect read for part and full-time college instructors to get a grip on learning outcomes, alternative assessment, learning communities and all the newest instructional practices for the 21st century classroom. You will find that this book is like no other in the area of faculty development in its use of story and metaphor. Part One is all story and metaphor, with deep, embedded significance for what it means to "guide" student learning. The title, Watermarks, emerges in Part Two where the paddlers glean ten (10) hallmarks of sound instructional practice from the story that reframe best practices for 21st century college teaching (guiding). Part Three reveals in depth how one program faculty applied each of the ten Watermarks in their face-to-face and virtual classrooms and how you can do the same in your own courses. If our wildest hopes are realized, this story about water will be a significant change agent for a new generation of college faculty.
