Drawing on the literatures of adult education and of teaching skills, Engaging Diverse Learners: Teaching Strategies for Academic Librarians presents a wide range of methods to improve how you teach. Coauthors Mark Aaron Polger and Scott Sheidlower argue that in order to grab-and hold onto-students' attention, instructors must get their interest right from the beginning. The techniques they suggest explain how to take into consideration the range of different learning styles students may have, how to accommodate students with different English language skills or abilities, and how to successfully work with individuals from different socioeconomic backgrounds or from different technologically adapted generations. The sections for each group address the key questions of identification (who are they?); how members of that group tend to react to libraries, librarians, and education; and how educational theories of that time affected students' learning in that generation. 606 $aLibrary & information sciences$2bicssc 615 7$aLibrary & information sciences 676 $a025.5/677 700 $aAaron Polger$b Mark$01433751 702 $aSheidlower$b Scott 801 0$bUkLoBP 801 1$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910162918003321 996 $aEngaging diverse learners$93583683 997 $aUNINA
