Lectures Efficiently convey information to a large group Straightforward method of imparting knowledge to students quickly Instructors have control over what is being taught because they are the sole source of information Provide a forum for questions/answers Lectures are oftentimes easier to create than other methods The Anatomy Lecture of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp Rembrandt A lecture at the University of Bologna in Italy in the mid- fourteenth century.

Lectures Auditory learners find lectures fit their learning style (30% learners) Visual learners find contemporary lectures fit their learning style (60% learners)

“students taught by teachers, who devote more effective teaching time to lecture style presentation rather than letting students solve problems on their own or with the teacher’s guidance, learn more ….” Conclusion Schwerdt G and Wasserman AC Program on Education Policy and Governance Harvard Kennedy School 2010
27
Lectures are the best teaching method for many students Lectures exploit the human aptitude for spoken communication A formal lecture is a mutually beneficial “collusion” between class and lecturer Lectures builds trust between lecturer and class Bruce Charlton Professor of Theoretical Medicine University of Buckingham

“A great lecture is not a rote mechanical reading of notes, but a kind of dance, in which lecturer and listeners watch, respond to, and draw energy and inspiration from each other”. Professor Richard Gundermann, MD, MS Atlantic Magazine 2013

Texting adversely affects interpersonal development. “functionally illiterate when it comes to reading inflection and facial expressions. Kids today have fear of face-to-face conversation. 'Someday, but certainly not now, I want to learn to have a conversation.' Americans ages 18- 29 send and receive an average of nearly 88 text messages per day The End of Verbal Conversation?

37
“Rather than abandon lectures as a means of learning, we should attempt to understand better the features that distinguish effective, engaging lectures from those that leave learners limp, the lecturer despondent and the entire learning exercise wanting. The lecture as we know it is not dead, (it) just needs to be reincarnated within the innovative environment of modern medical education.” Trevor Gibbs, MD Professor and Consultant in Medical Education

1.Lectures without engagement with the audience turns students into passive observers. Research shows that participation increases learning. There is no rule stating that lecturers are forbidden to turn lectures into interactive learning sessions. 2.Our ability to retain information falls off badly after 10-20 minutes. Most lectures are too long. Who’s to prevent a lecturer from putting breaks in their presentations. 3. Lectures rely on students taking notes, yet note-taking is seldom taught and as a result effectiveness of the lecture is reduced. UM students are given notes and slides for the lecture. For some active note taking was beneficial in retention of knowledge. Top 5 Reasons Lectures Should be Abandoned

4.If something is not understood on first exposure there is no opportunity to pause, reflect, or seek clarification. Place timely stops in a lecture “I know that this may be a difficult concept” How are you guys doing? Body language cues Great advantage of doing live lectures. 5.Lecturers put too much information in their talks and students can’t process it all. A well-organized, well structured, and well-presented lecture can be both entertaining, can convey significant amounts of knowledge and convey powerful messages. Top 5 Reasons Lectures Should be Abandoned
