Publications and Presentations

In addition to our work at Vanderbilt, Center for Teaching staff members contribute to the broader higher education community through publications and presentations. Our scholarly work includes research in our “home” disciplines, the scholarship of teaching and learning, and the scholarship of educational development.

Highlights

Since its founding in 1986, the CFT’s contributions to the literature on teaching and learning in higher education has taken many different forms. Below is a list of a few of our contributions. This list is not intended to be comprehensive; instead it is meant to give a sense of the kinds of topics our staff members have explored in past publications.


Adult Learning in the Language Classroom (Multilingual Matters, 2015) This book by CFT assistant director Stacey Johnson explores the intersection of adult learning theory and language teaching practice. In their work, CFT regularly draw on educational theory and research to understand discipline-specific teaching and learning practices, often by gathering and analyzing evidence of those practices, as Johnson does in this volume and her previous work, Hybrid Language Teaching in Practice: Perceptions, Reactions, and Results (Stylus, 2015). More information on Johnson’s scholarship is available here.
Exploring More Signature Pedagogies: Approaches to Teaching Disciplinary Habits of Mind, (Stylus, 2012) This volume was co-edited by Nancy Chick and was published while she was an assistant director at the CFT. It’s a follow-up to Nancy’s earlier work, Exploring Signature Pedagogies: Approaches to Teaching Disciplinary Habits of Mind (Stylus, 2009). Both books feature invited chapters from scholars of teaching and learning on teaching practices that help students understand and develop ways of thinking core to different academic disciplines. Chick’s work on signature pedagogies has been transformative here at Vanderbilt and beyond. Chick now serves as the Academic Director of the Taylor Institute for Teaching and Learning at the University of Calgary. See Nancy Chick’s website for more information.
What the Best College Teachers Do by Ken Bain (Harvard University Press, 2004) Founding CFT director Ken Bain has been studying outstanding college teachers for more than two decades. His 2004 book summarizes key findings of his study and relates those findings to cognitive science research. Although Bain’s book was published while he was the director of the Center for Teaching Excellence at New York University, he began his study right here at Vanderbilt, shortly after founding the CFT. Bain’s book is an example of how the CFT works to blend pedagogical theory with teaching practice.
Teaching at Its Best: A Research-Based Resource for College Instructors (3rd edition) by Linda Nilson (Jossey-Bass, 2010) Linda Nilson wrote the first edition of this book, then subtitled “A Research-Based Resource for the Vanderbilt Teaching Community,” while she was the director of the CFT. In the latest edition of her book, Nilson provides practical strategies for a wide variety of teaching modes and contexts, all well-informed by the research literature on teaching and learning. For several years, copies of Nilson’s book were given to new teaching assistants every August at the CFT’s TA Orientation.
Teaching with Classroom Response Systems: Creating Acting Learning Environments by Derek Bruff (Jossey-Bass, 2009) Classroom response systems, or “clickers,” are instructional technologies that enable teachers to rapidly collect and analyze students’ responses to multiple-choice and free-response questions during class. CFT Director Derek Bruff‘s book features example clicker questions and activities from 50 instructors from a wide variety of disciplines and types of institutions. The book grew out of an online resource guide to teaching with clickers that Bruff wrote at the CFT, and is an example of the CFT’s continuing interest in educational technology. For more on Bruff’s work, see his website, Agile Learning.
“Teaching, Learning, and Spirituality in the College Classroom” by Allison Pingree (Essays on Teaching Excellence, 19(6), 2007) In this 2007 essay, then-CFT director Allison Pingree argues for the importance of incorporating discussions of spirituality, meaning, and purpose in the classroom, and provides practical strategies for doing so. Later, CFT assistant director Kat Baker and others would continue exploring this topic, resulting in the creation of a contemplative pedagogy working group at Vanderbilt.
“Incorporating Undergraduate Research into a 17th-century French Literature Seminar” by Patricia Armstrong (in Reading, Writing, & Research: Undergraduate Students as Scholars in Literary Studies, edited by Laura Behling, Council on Undergraduate Research, 2007) Senior CFT staff members regularly teach courses at Vanderbilt and use those courses as opportunities to explore different aspects of teaching and learning. In this 2007 article, CFT assistant director Patricia Armstrong reports on her introduction of undergraduate research in a course she taught on French literature. Armstrong’s article is an example of how instructors can practice a scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL). See our resource guide on SoTL for more on this topic.
“Publicity 2.0: Creating an Efficient Publicity Machine” by Rhett McDaniel & Derek Bruff (presented at the 2010 POD Network conference) Not only do CFT staff members explore issues of teaching and learning in a scholarly manner, but they also take the same approach to their own work as educational developers. This national conference presentation by CFT educational technologist Rhett McDaniel and director Derek Bruff is an example of how CFT staff members share their work with their professional community.
