Center for Innovative Teaching: Effective Lectures

Techniques to make direct instruction more engaging.

That makes it the automatic fallback method for conveying content toour learners. This seminar will look at when lectures are themost appropriate teaching method and explore ways you can ensure that studentsare engaged during a lecture and are understanding the material.
