Abstract
What is described here has its seeds in the timeless aspects of good teaching - it is just that some of the contexts are new and challenging. In many cases, these accounts represent the first steps on an uncertain journey to transform and enrich teaching and learning, but the progress to date is encouraging. Here are real educators engaged with real students in the pursuit of powerful, effective, and lasting learning. Overall, this book makes a valuable contribution to furthering our knowledge of teaching and learning. Although largely centered in the context of undergraduate science teaching, there are valuable lessons here for educators from all areas who share an interest in fostering intellectual quality and capacity in their students.
