Engaging preclinical medical students in the curriculum is challenging. To address this challenge, the investigators developed and implemented self-paced polling with recorded lectures, in which students answered audience response questions at their own pace. In 2021, we retrospectively assigned second-year medical students (N = 165) as Active or…

Quectures are flipped lectures with embedded 'quecture questions', which employ metacognitive reflection as an active learning intervention. Quecture questions are students' own questions, identified and constructed by students around learning objectives during lectures. The quecture question intervention aims to support each student to engage…

Resulting from the collaboration between five practicing professionals and an LIS faculty member, this article illuminates the experiences of librarians and archivists who engage with LIS students on a continuous basis as guest speakers in LIS classrooms. The phenomenological approach helps to elicit first-hand accounts that encapsulate…

The 'quecture' is a partially flipped lecture that incorporates students posing their own questions (quecture questions), discussing them during lectures and revisiting them later. These interactive…

A prelecture video can be made more engaging with a lightboard. With this method, an instructor presents material in a video while directly facing the camera and writing on a transparent screen in front of them. We present instructions for constructing an inexpensive removable desktop lightboard that can be stored as smaller pieces. We share tips…
