When Personal and Professional Passions Align

  • Sharon G. Johnson

Abstract

I have been profoundly challenged this summer by a new book, What the Best College Teachers Do, by Ken Bain, director of the New York University Center for Teaching Excellence (Harvard University Press, 2004, ISBN 0674013255). I have provided a complete book review later in this journal. Bain’s work is without a doubt one of the most provocative books on college teaching I have read.
