Book Reviews of Humor as an Instructional Defibrillator: Evidence-Based Techniques in Teaching and Assessment
Book Review: It's OK...
Summary: 2 Stars
This book has a few good ideas for helping you to be more interesting to students, but I found that the jokes get old quickly and most of the ideas are pretty lame. Better advice might be to find your own sense of humor and be yourself! If you truly enjoy teaching and love your students, it will come through in your classroom demeaneor. This book is for those teachers and professors who are so seriously humor-deficient as to be terminally boring anyway, so it might not even help. Give the book a try, but I wouldn't recommend paying full price for it; get it used or borrow it from a colleague or library.
