Hi Anna,
You are right on with your delivery of instruction. I teach a 6 hour course that starts at 4 and runs to 10. I have to have a lot of activities to keep the students engaged between the mini-lectures. These activities involved small groups, discussions, projects, case studies and anything else I can think of to keep the class moving forward. A challenge but at the end of the night it is well work the effort when I see the progress the students have made.
