I remember when I first started teaching in the early '90s I was
provided by the publisher the instructor's manual by Martin Bolt. I
found it to me a gold mine of classroom activities, tips and ideas to
extend student learning beyond the book. I valued it so much that I
asked for another copy - one for home and one for the office - so that
I would never be without it. I always turned to Dr. Bolt's manual for
ideas on how to make the lecture come to life. As Phil de Haan said
in his speech for Dr. Bolt when he received the presidential award, he
was a "teacher's teacher".

Dear teaching colleagues,
I am so sad to report that my friend Martin Bolt, author of many
instructional resources for the teaching of psychology over the
last quarter
century, died of cancer on Christmas morning, with his family
gathered
round.
With gratitude for the generosity of his spirit and the excellence
of his
work,

P.S. If perchance you have benefitted from his resources and might
have a
word of appreciation, I am collecting such to convey to his family .
For those of you who, like me, were unfamiliar with Martin Bolt, here
is a press release from Calvin College where Bolt taught:
