Today, lectures and active learning have been cast as competing opposites. In fact, they can be quite effective when used together. Interactive lectures combine engaging lecture segments with selected active learning methods. Using Silver and Perini’s (2010) Interactive Lecture Cycle in 4 Phases, you will learn to plan and implement an interactive lecture that incorporates memory-enhancing techniques into your instruction.
Through participation in this learning space, you will be able to:
- Use an interactive lecture framework
- Identify the learning principles associated with the various framework components
- Create your own interactive lecture using the framework
