Teaching Better

Ancient Sumer invented the wheel thousands of years ago. We need not reinvent it. Likewise, teachers should build on the teachers before them. I have taught the Bible for 51 years, so let me spare you time “making a wheel” for yourself. Use the templates below to improve what I began.

For example, how can we fairly grade students? As a student, I found it frustrating to get a B, and the teacher could not explain how I could improve it to an A. So, as a teacher now, I try to be objective in marking assignments. The result is many grade sheets that spell out exactly what I look for in an assignment.

Finally, if you find this website’s over 375,000 PPT slides and pages of handouts daunting, download the BSD Overview presentation and handout immediately below. They give my background and an overview of this website so you can see the courses I have taught and how to navigate it better. For other resources, click the Research & Writing link.
