Lynne Goeldner Rompelman, '72
Affective Teaching. Paperback, 72 pages, University Press of
America, 2002.
Rompelman is instructor in psychology, chair of the psychology department, and chair of the social sciences division at Concordia University Wisconsin in Mequon.
Her book examines the familiar domains of cognition (thinking) and affect (feeling) and comes down firmly on the side of affect as a needed, more personalized approach to teaching. Incorporating the voices of both teachers and students, the book examines "the affective domain," suggests how it may be emphasized in teaching, and provides an assessment tool " to determine whether you are an affective teacher."
