Is the lecture an outmoded teaching method that inhibits active learning or is it a potentially powerful tool that is an essential part of every teacher’s repertoire? CTE is excited to announce that Todd Zakrajsek will return to the SMU campus this fall to talk about his new book, Dynamic Lecturing. His talk will present up-to-date research on the different types of lecture, on what constitutes effective lecturing, and on the impact of lecturing when done appropriately and well. The strategies he will present are succinct, easy to incorporate into lectures and, if done well, will have immediate impact and increase student mastery of course content.
