Are you a faculty member wondering what others are doing to create engaging courses, or are you an administrator trying to keep up with current trends at peer institutions? Find this information and more in the publication that over 350,000 academics trust for updated higher education news, analysis and opinion – the Chronicle of Higher Education.

The D’Youville Library pays for institutional access to this award winning publication saving you the $95 annual subscription fee. Keep informed on current trends and news in higher education with daily updates from the web site.

Looking at your evaluations and wondering what you can do to improve your classes? Recent articles like “Are you Assigning Too Much Reading or Just Too Much Boring Reading?” and “They Haven’t Done the Reading Again” (you can tell the library cares for reading!) in the Advice section of the Chronicle will give you innovative ideas tested and evaluated by other college instructors.

Go beyond the news and advice and look at the Opinion section. Learn the fears/frustrations or satisfaction/successes of others in the field. Prepare for intense faculty water cooler banter with recent hot topics such as “Has Tenure Become an Instrument of Intimidation” and “The University is a Ticking Time Bomb”.

And don’t forget the Chronicle job listings for those that didn’t use this opportunity to improve their courses!
