ED111 is a good course to take for all instructors. I have been an instructor for about 5 years and have learned a thing about creating an active learning environment. For my first year I did the traditional lecture format and would constantly hear little sighs and yawns regulalrly. I really wanted to engage the students but was finding it dfficult. One day I decided to allow the students to particiapte a lot more and became willing to hand a lot of the control of the learning to the students. I still lecture but I  also allow the students a chance to speak and be a part of the learning process. Since I have changed my classrooms have been more efficient and the level of succees has risen.
