Abstract :
Effective teaching for effective learning is of basic concern to everyone involved in the process of teaching. Yet, a reminder is often necessary to focus attention upon objectives and techniques to achieve such effectiveness. Points of views are presented to stimulate concern with the teaching function. These views are attempts to summarize a vast body of literature generated by individual efforts and group efforts. In this regard, special mention should be made of the initiatives being exerted by the American Society for Engineering Education through its regional Workshops on Effective Teaching to promote awareness, an initiative which began in 1960 as a Summer Institute.
