First Published in 2000. This is the fourth edition of a handbook that has already become well-known to many academic staff. Its popularity rests on the way it presents ideas about teaching and learning underpinned by research findings, but in a form that provides detailed, helpful advice for teachers in higher education. he Handbook could be used to support any of the many training programmes being introduced into colleges and universities around the world, as indeed previous editions have already done. The various chapters focus on the specific skills that are dealt with in such programmes: large-group and small-group teaching, methods of assessment and so on. They also include advice on how to present conference papers, an area where advice seems sorely lacking.

Methodological accounts of research interviews find that how researchers use this tool in their work varies widely: there are many “ways” of interviewing. This edited collection unpacks the interactional dynamics of qualitative research interviews from studies conducted in education, second language acquisition, applied linguistics and disability studies from scholars in the UK, USA, Italy, Portugal and Korea. These studies explore the interactional details of how the identities of researchers and their participants matter for the generation of interview data, as well as the kinds of discursive resources and social actions that occur in tandem with the production of data for research projects. Given the widespread use of qualitative interviews for social research, this book provides a robust contribution to what Tim Rapley has called the “social studies of interviewing.” This book is relevant to audiences across disciplines who use the interview as a primary research method.
