Disk 2: Clarity in Teaching & Classroom Environment
The lecture remains the predominant method of delivering course content in higher education. This is particularly true in the sciences where experts need to convey complex concepts. Lectures are also necessary components of student-centered courses. These DVDs answer the question: what lecturing strategies best facilitate learning?
The video sequences illustrate key principles and techniques that viewers can adapt to their own contexts and styles. Although all the clips present the teaching of mathematics, the natural sciences, and engineering, the content is readily understandable by instructors from other disciplines and presents no barrier to applying the methods and techniques to other fields.
The DVDs and documentation provide the theoretical background to the strategies, explain how they work, and discuss the relationships among them.

Disk 2: Clarity in Teaching & Classroom Environment

Summary of Contents:
Disc 1: Making Lessons Interesting
This DVD demonstrates presentation techniques that capture students' attention and promote learning. The first part shows how to make content provocative and memorable through the use of dramatic illustrations, visual aids, suspense and surprise, and self-disclosure, and by challenging students intellectually. The second part illustrates the uses of emphasis in verbal and nonverbal communication, shows the impact of dramatic behavior, and the importance of varying presentation methods.
This DVD also demonstrates techniques for actively engaging students during lectures, such as posing questions, and creating opportunities for students to talk and listen, read, write, and reflect during class. It covers such methods as discussion, collaborative learning, small-group work, role-playing, simulations and more. It also illustrates the importance of adapting to and managing the classroom environment.
