The original Teaching at the University of Florida was adapted from the Teaching Handbook Template produced at Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts and made available for adaptation under a grant from the Fund for the Improvement of Post-secondary Education (F.I.P.S.E. Project No. 116-CH700-10; Project Director, Michael Theall, Ph.D.).  Much of the information the handbook contains has been compiled from the handbooks of a number of colleges and universities around the country.  Adaptations are credited in the text according to the following system.  When “Adapted from…” appears just after the title of a section, it indicates that the section was adapted from that source.  When “(Adapted from…)” appears within the text of a section, it indicates that the preceding paragraph was adapted from that source.  Later editions follow the same convention.  We would like to acknowledge those individuals and institutions who have granted permission for the inclusion of material in Handbook for Teachers with special thanks to Dr. Mina Ghattas.
