Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to examine three TQM techniques for increasing classroom teaching effectiveness. Charles S. Green describes "good pedagogy" in teaching sociology in his article, "Hubris in Teaching Sociology," Changes, The Magazine of Higher Learning, November -December 1993, pp. 36-37. 'What is good pedagogy? Good pedagogy means getting students involved in active and preferably collaborative efforts with one another and with the instructor to 1) analyze data of various kinds to learn how sociological concepts are created inductively and 2) use sociological concepts to analyze various social issues and problems. Of course such a pedagogy is easier to describe in the abstract than in the classroom."
