Download or read book Professors are from Mars, Students are from Snickers written by Ronald A. Berk and published by Stylus Publishing, LLC.. This book was released on 2003 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professors and students seem to come from different planets (or candy bars). Barriers frequently exist that impede their communication, such as age, income and cholesterol level. Humor can break down these barriers so that professors can better connect with their students and other audiences. It can be used as a teaching tool to facilitate learning. Ron Berk describes and illustrates a wide variety of techniques that can be integrated systematically into instruction and professional presentations. For professors who consider themselves as 'jocularly arthritic', this book moreover provides a special feature: it is close-captioned for the humor impaired.
