Teaching 101: Captivating Your Captive Audience (aka Planning a Lesson)
Dr. Pamela L. Gay, Michael Shaw
No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Participants welcome at individual sessions (series)
Whether it be a 20-min presentation or a 2-hr lecture, we are all called on to teach, and there are things we all need to know if we want our audience to listen, to learn, and to retain the contents of what we are teaching. In this 2 session course you will learn the ins and outs of preparing a good lesson or talk. Research studies will be cited throughout for those wishing to learn more. Participants will be prepared to teach ESP's Splash! from this class.

In the second session we will dive into active learning, and how you can increase learning by decreasing content density and by encouraging student interactions during class time.
