Four teachers named U.S. Professors of the Year - USATODAY.com:

"Teaching is more than lecturing: It is helping students experience their education, say the four 2009 U.S. Professors of the Year, who are being recognized today by the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) and the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.

'These are not people who are simply standing in front of a classroom and lecturing to students,' says Rae Goldsmith, vice president of advancement resources for CASE. 'These are all people who are letting the students participate in their own learning process, engaging students in research.'"
