6. Engaging Students in Lecture


Listen Later

Lectures don’t have to be boring! In fact, they can be engaging and effective when used correctly in a classroom that is balanced with active learning experiences and direct instruction. Lectures can still be a useful instructional strategy that can help solidify the learning our students do during active learning experiences. 

In this episode, I’ll share why I still lecture, and I’ll give you my five best strategies for making lectures engaging for your students.
