If We Really Need To Lecture •Use transparency sparingly •Put detailed notes in handouts. Leave gaps •Ask questions periodically • Avoid calling on individual students cold •Intersperse small group activities with lecturing - use active teaching and learning technique instead Cooperative note- taking Guided Reciprocal pairs Peer Questioning Think-pair-share From OBE Training - Dr Aisyah 6
Lecturing Using Technology Bad uses of instructional Technology • Turning classes into PowerPoint shows • Electronic page turner • Do anything that decrease students involvement Good uses of Technology • Complex visuals, animation • Lecture clips and videos • E-learning for interactive tutorials, archiving course materials • Simulations • Remote cooperative learning From OBE Training - Dr Aisyah 7

Principles of Good Practice in SCL 1. Encourages Contact Between Students and Lecturer 2. Develops Reciprocity and Cooperation Among Students 3. Encourages Active Learning 4. Gives Prompt Feedback 5. Emphasizes Time on Task 6. Communicates High Expectations 7. Respects Diverse Talents and Ways of Learning
Stages in Effective Course Delivery - SCL Planning 5. Monitoring 2. Delivering 4. Evaluating 3. Assessing
….the individuals learning the most in the typical classrooms are the teachers there. They have reserved for themselves the very conditions that promote learning: What I know best I have taught… actively seeking new information, integrating it with what is known, organizing it in a meaningful way, and explaining it to others.

SAMPELS OF ACTIVE LEARNING From OBE Training - Dr Aisyah
SCL -A1 - In class Team Form teams of 2-4, choose recorders. Give teams 30 seconds--5 minutes to 1. Recall prior material 2. Answer a question 3. Start a problem solution 4. Work out next step in a derivation 5. Think of an example or application 6. Figure out why a given result may be wrong 7. Brainstorm (object is quantity, not quality) 8. Generate a question 9. Summarize a lecture Collect some or all answers, calling on several individuals first.This always works, regardless of class size. From OBE Training - Dr Aisyah 9
SCL -A2 - Think-Pair-Share Students think of answers individually, then form pairs to synthesizeresponse. Pairs share responses. More time-consuming, more instructive than immediate group work. From OBE Training - Dr Aisyah 10
SCL -A3 - Cooperative Note Taking At several points in the lecture, pairs summarize & comparewhat they have in their notes. Goal: More accurate & complete notes. Especially helpful in courses where studentsneed note-taking support. From OBE Training - Dr Aisyah 11
SCL -A4 - Guided Reciprocal Each student prepares questions on the lecture or readingusing high-level generic question stems. Examples: What is the main idea of ___? What if ___? What conclusions can I draw Explain why… about ___? Explain how… What is the difference between How would I use ___ __ & __? to ___? How are ___ and ___ similar?How does ___ affect ___?What is a new example of ___? In class, groups of 3-4 students take turns answering their questions.Whole class comes together to discuss unanswered or interesting From OBE Training - Dr Aisyah 12 questions.
SCL -A5 - Writing Assignments • Assign frequent, short writing assignments • Students “write to learn” gaining deeper understandingof course material • Student entries may be kept in a learning log From OBE Training - Dr Aisyah 13
How Do We Check Teaching Effectiveness ASSESS Use Classroom Assessment Technique (CAT)* Minute Paper - 2 minutes before students leave ask them to write (1) the main points and (2) the muddiest points. Collect them bore theyleave. Analyzed and pick up important points in the next lecture. Direct Paraphrasing - Pick any theory or principle, Ask student toexplain in their own words as if he/she is telling it to a child /grandparents. Provide effective feedback. Application Card - Ask students to write at least one possibleapplication of the important principle, theory, formula or procedurebeen thought. Give response to their idea. * Angelo, Thomas A., & Cross, K Patricia (1993). Classroom Assessment Techniques, San From OBE Training - Dr Aisyah 16 Francisco, CA: Jossey-Bass
