Coauthors Mark Aaron Polger and Scott Sheidlower argue that in order to grab-and hold onto--students' attention, instructors must get their interest right from the beginning. The techniques they suggest explain how to take into consideration the range of different learning styles students may have, how to accommodate students with different English language skills or abilities, and how to successfully work with individuals from different socioeconomic backgrounds or from different technologically adapted generations. The sections for each group address the key questions of identification (who are they?); how members of that group tend to react to libraries, librarians, and education; and how educational theories of that time affected students' learning in that generation.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMark Aaron Polger\u003c\/b\u003e is assistant professor and First Year Experience librarian at the College of Staten Island, City University of New York. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eScott Sheidlower\u003c\/b\u003e is associate professor and head of circulation, reserves, and archivist at York College, City University of New York.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 184\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 9.1 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 28, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52696842928435,"sku":"9781440838507","price":129.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/pDMWTgCNH-9781440838507.webp?v=1763121224","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/engaging-diverse-learners-teaching-strategies-for-academic-librarians-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
