Abstract
Part-time faculty teaching transfer courses in four community colleges in southern Illinois were surveyed to determine the teaching methods that they used. One hundred thirty-eight instructors completed a mailed survey for a response rate of 58%. The most popular teaching techniques were lecture, class discussion, written feedback, and methods to engage critical thinking. Least favored were slides, field trips, audiotapes, and guest lecturers. Faculty who had participated in professional development were more likely to use small group discussions, demonstrations, and activities to promote critical thinking.
