Buzz-words and reference material

David mentioned he was interested in learning as well some of the current buzzwords. Apart from providing me with some buzzwords, the following three books served me well when doing practical work in the classroom and are probably standard issue in many programs. It is handy to own them since they are useful, rather cheap and updaded periodically:
Clasroom Assessment Techniques by Thomas Angelo and Pat Cross
Collaborative Learning Techniques by Liz Barley, Pat Cross and Claire Major
They are all from Jossey-Bass(Wiley), they publish most of the cool hands-on reference books. Non-reference books can be a bit lightweight at times, but let me know if you find something interesting.

The CTL library (and/or my own bookshelf) has copies of Classroom Assessment Techniques and Designing & Assessing Courses and Curricula if you want to look them over before thinking about adding to your personal library.

Classroom Assessment Techniques especially makes my "shortlist" of good books on teaching.
