Book Reviews of Professors Are from MarsŪ, Students Are from SnickersŪ: How to Write and Deliver Humor in the Classroom and in Professional Presentations
Book Review: Solved All My Problems
Summary: 5 Stars
Dr. Berk generates a great perspective for working with college students. I recommend this book for more experienced, tenured professors whose style may need refreshment. Great suggestions on dealing with the usual classroom events such as too hot, too cold, no power, I applied a number of his suggestions and the students and I had much more fun. An unexpected benefit is that now I have a different job, too.
So, if you want to find yourself enjoying teaching more, and possibly even getting a new job, carefully read and apply.
