Small Teaching: Everyday Lessons from the Science of Learning by James M. Lang is a teaching and learning guide that translates findings from cognitive and educational psychology into practical classroom methods. First published in 2016 and later updated in a second edition, the book argues that instructors do not need sweeping course redesigns to improve student learning. Instead, small, deliberate changes in daily teaching practice can produce meaningful gains in retention, understanding, and motivation. Lang writes primarily for college instructors, though many of his ideas also apply to secondary education and online teaching. The book sits within the faculty development and pedagogy genre, but its tone is notably practical rather than theoretical. Its central purpose is to help busy educators connect learning science to everyday decisions about class time, course structure, feedback, and communication. By focusing on manageable interventions, Lang offers a model of improvement that feels realistic, evidence informed, and adaptable across disciplines.
