Discuss designing your classroom sessions for learning, including "dynamic lecturing," with Dr. Todd Zakrajsek. Dr. Zakrajsek incorporates recent research on learning and effective active lecture techniques in this one-hour workshop. Participants will get ideas for modifying their lectures and other classroom activities, so that students learn in their limited classroom time.
