Summary:

It is an important aspect of cultural life that accomplished experts pass on their knowledge and experience to future generations. By doing so, they help students to excel. The professional knowledge experts command mostly lies in a field different from education. Therefore, experts often face difficulties when they teach. Experts as Effective Teachers: Understanding the Relevance of Cognition, Emotion, and Relation in Education wishes to inspire experts to reflect upon their practice as teachers from a cognitive, emotional, and relational point of view and to derive from this reflection new perspectives for their own teaching methods. Thus, they may be enabled to match the professionalism of their already existing expertise in the field with the professional level of their teaching. Book jacket.
