Higher & Continuing Education

"Leadership is communication and communication is leadership." No truism could apply more aptly to any leader than to department chairs, deans, directors, vice presidents, chancellors, or presidents - and all other college and university administrators - regardless of rank or assignment. Written exclusively for higher education administrators by a team with considerable experience in academic administration and communication, Reaching Out takes you through the 15 phases in the process of communicating with your constituencies. Each chapter contains examples of typical academic unit communication plans, programs, and projects.

Contemporary Theories and Practice in Education

Theories of education and theories of learning abound. This book explores the many lines of thinking that may influence how you teach. Bertrand explains who contributed what to our ways of thinking about learning and teaching - and why those contributions are important. 
Making sense of these theories and comparing them to one another is an important but difficult task. Bertrand has developed a model for program-planning and sound pedagogy which will help you analyze your practice and assist your students in developing a coherent theoretical foundation of their own. 
Totally revised and expanded, the second edition of Contemporary Theories and Practice in Education serves equally well as a course text or a professional development tool. Integrating new material, Bertrand has updated and reorganized the text into a more comprehensive and functional format. Included are the thoughts, research, and proposals of theorists such as Maslow, Piaget, Rogers, Vygotsky, Adler, Freire, and literally hundreds of others.
