Davis argues that post-secondary instructors have to improve their performance in the classroom not only by better understanding how teachers teach, but also how learners learn. He translates recent research on learning into a form useful for college teachers, and then integrates it with current thinking on teaching to construct a framework for effective classroom communication.
