Editor's Notes
- #7: Keep the opening brief, entertaining- 5 min max
- #8: Keep the opening brief- 5 min max Think- pair - share: have class turn to classmate, ask class a question, give a moment to think and then share with partner [about 5 min max Stump your partner: again classmates pair up and then each asks the other a question about the previous day’s lecture in an effort to stump them - can then have time for them to ask you things they need clarified. Note check- partners again have them compare notes from previous day- see what each had as important points, points of confusion
- #11: Insert a slide like this right into PowerPoint presentation so that you break every 12-15 minutes
- #12: Insert a slide like this into the body of the lecture so you take a break every 12-15 minutes
- #13: Insert a slide like this into the lecture so there is a break every 12-15 minutes.
- #15: Sometimes a blank slide is a good strategy—it gets students’ attention, gives them a chance to catch their breath, and forces the instructor to slow down.
- #17: What follows are other examples of active learning strategies, many of which include group or pair work. One thing to mention, too, is that these kinds of slides could also be used as classroom assessment techniques.
