Abstract :
The paper summarizes effective teaching techniques for engineering identified during one of the technical sessions of the 1999 Frontiers in Education Conference in San Juan, Puerto Rico (A. Klinger, 1999). The paper involves the perspectives of twelve experienced college teachers engaged in a round-table discussion of “Ways to improve a classroom environment” and “Behaviors to avoid in the classroom”. Those ideas are discussed and then supplemented with general advice and specific suggestions from the experience of the authors. Advice presented in the paper could benefit any teacher seeking to improve classroom effectiveness
