Synopsis: Teaching Undergraduate Science: A Guide to Overcoming Obstacles to Student Learning offers college and university instructors evidence-based strategies to help students learn those specific skills and habits of mind necessary for succeeding in STEM fields.Updated and expanded from the first edition, this text elaborates on critical factors in cultivating student success, including how to engender a sense of belonging and agency in STEM, engage students in their learning, and foster deliberate practice. Hodges provides frank guidance on the relative effort and outcomes for each strategy, allowing instructors to choose techniques best suited to their aims and contexts. While focusing primarily on face-to-face classes, this resource also addresses how to work between online resources and physical spaces. Hodges’ years of experience working as and with STEM faculty provides a personal connection to the research shared, producing an accessible, practical, and enjoyable read.
