The lecture can be a highly effective and interactive method for transferring knowledge to the students. It takes preparation, practice, & reflection
The lecture was established formally centuries ago as a teaching process that began with a literal reading of important passages from the text by the master.
It is observed that lecturing is frequently a one-way process unaccompanied by discussion or questioning. This makes it a poor teaching method
The lecture in its many forms is the most commonly used method for transferring information.
There are serious questions regarding the effectiveness of the traditional lecturing approach.
The lecture method is used extensively in medical education. Academic physicians often are not trained in giving effective lectures
Clinical lecturing must be an intellectually challenging experience. Students, through extensive interactive teaching are able to gain thorough conceptual understanding
In the effective, active lecture, the teacher involves students through a highly interactive and participatory approach using a variety of teaching techniques.
In an ineffective, passive lecture, students find it difficult to concentrate, as there is little or no stimulation.
An effective lecture is one of the most exciting and rewarding aspect of a teacher’s responsibility. The teacher should maintain participant’s interest with an exciting, dynamic delivery. Variety of instructional methods is more likely to help students reach the learning objectives. Effective lectures do not just happen, they are planned. Careful planning is one of the most important steps in achieving this shared responsibility
Efforts to improve the lecturing of medical professionals must focus on changing the role of the student from passive observer to active participant. The responsibility for meeting learning objectives is shared by the teacher and each student.
Effective lectures do not just happen, they are planned. Careful planning is one of the most important steps in achieving this shared responsibility.
Planning an Effective Lecture:
Consider the objective of the lecture and the logistics. Plan a variety of approaches like, use of questioning, media, and small group activities. Prepare a set of lecture notes.
