UHD Active Learning/Student Engagement

Resource Collection - Books

 

One of the primary goals of the QEP is to develop an Active Learning/Student Engagement Resource Collection in cooperation with the Cullen Teaching and Learning Center and the UHD W. I. Dykes Library. We encourage faculty and staff to use this collection as a reference to enhance and inform efforts to promote student engagement and active learning. The following list shows the book titles acquired through QEP and Cullen Center funding. The titles are categorized according to the following major topics: 1) Teaching and learning; 2) Institutional transformation; 3) Student cohorts; 4) College success and lifelong learning; 5) Service learning and student leadership; 6) Learning theory and research; 7) Assessment; 8) Educational history/Other. Because so many of the books are devoted to teaching and learning, a few subcategories have been included there: a) Reading and composition; b) Technology and e-learning; c) Problem-based, group and inquiry learning. The information listed for each book includes the title, author, imprint, and call number. A few books are included in more than one category.
