I have only been teaching for 3 1/2 years. As I first started out, I taught the lecture/student model. It now becomes apparent to me that lecture alone is not the most prolific way of getting across information. Working in groups, working with a partner, applying knowledge when appropriate for exams, and or hands on activities is more beneficial, and provides instant feedback to the student in hopes they are moving in the right direction. This also keeps the students interest as they move along in the program.
