A collection of resources on teaching large classes from the Center for Teaching Excellence - University of Maryland

I found this to be a practical and useful guide for teaching large classes, however, it appears to be slightly dated in that it does not include any reference to new technological tools that would enhance collaboration and interaction.  It includes excellent strategies for promoting active learning and tips on using both graduate and undergraduate teaching assistants in large classes.  This guide is a quick read with simple subtopics and practical tips throughout.
