Put Teaching Naked to work in your classroom with clear examples and step-by-step guidance.

Teaching Naked Techniques (TNT) is a practical guide offering proven quick ideas for improving classes and essential information for designing anything from one lesson or a group of lessons to an entire course. TNT is both a design guide and a 'sourcebook' of ideas, serving as a great companion to the award-winning Teaching Naked book.

Teaching Naked Techniques helps higher education faculty design more effective and engaging classrooms. The book focuses on each step of class preparation, from the entry point and first encounter with content to the classroom 'surprise.' Each chapter in the cycle contains an abundance of discipline-specific examples, the latest research on cognition and technology, quick lists of ideas, and additional resources.

By rethinking the how, when, and why of technology, faculty can create exponentially more opportunities for practical student engagement. Student-centred, activity-driven, and proven repeatedly, these techniques can revolutionise your classroom.

  • Create more effective, engaging lessons for higher education
  • Utilise technology outside of the classroom to better engage during class time
  • Examine discipline-specific examples of Teaching Naked Techniques
  • Prepare for each class step by step from the student's perspective

Teaching Naked flips the classroom by placing the student's first contact with the material outside of class. This method shifts the burden of learning onto the learner, ensures student preparation, and frees up class time for active engagement with the material, leading to more effective learning and retention. Teaching Naked Techniques is the practical guide for bringing better learning to your classroom.
