Make a BIG Impact with Small Teaching

by Christina Stallard on 2025-12-05T00:00:00-05:00 | 0 Comments

Big improvements in student learning don’t always come from big overhauls. Sometimes, all it takes is a few small tweaks.

James M. Lang’s Small Teaching: Everyday Lessons from the Science of Learning (2nd edition, 2021) bridges the gap between learning theory and the real-world classroom. Drawing on cognitive science, Lang shares practical, research-based strategies that any instructor can use - often in a single class period - to boost engagement, memory, and understanding.

Want to help students retrieve knowledge more effectively? Strengthen classroom community? Make learning stick? This book offers concrete examples and ready-to-implement ideas to help you do just that.

📚 Good news! You don’t need to buy it. Small Teaching is available for free through EKU Libraries via the EBSCO eBook Collection-- just login with your EKU credentials. Discover how a few intentional changes can transform your teaching and your students’ learning!
