A Commonplace Book on Teaching and Learning: Reflections on learning processes, teaching methods, and their effects on scientific literacy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781452053714)

The format of the book is a little unusual because I decided to use the structure of a commonplace book, in which commonplace items that one comes across in one's life are jotted down for future reference in a journal.
