HCI and Industrial Design are both disciplines that are currently experiencing radical transformation in terms of their identity and scope. HCI has moved beyond its origins in human factors and cognitive psychology towards the proactive and generative design of experience. Industrial Design has similarly evolved from a concern with physical form…

This study aimed to investigate the effects of Storytelling Narrated Videos (SNV) on students' knowledge retention and transferability. A total of 56 students from a university in Indonesia were randomly assigned to a quasi-experimental research design exposed to SNV and to Lecture Narrated Videos (LNV). Two videos were created to deliver content…

Contribution: This paper furthers understanding of how to use studio culture to develop instruction that supports learners' epistemic development in the context of an engineering senior design course, with a focus on student development of epistemic frames. Background: Current capstone engineering design courses do not integrate the educational…

The purpose of this study was to determine whether an active learning classroom environment is more effective in teaching university students certain concepts of business law than the traditional lecture environment. To generate data to answer this question, over a seven-semester period beginning in fall semester 2005, six classes of Legal…

The typical "Astro 101" lecture-based course is passive, and adding well-designed learner-centered labs allows students to experience science as a pattern of thought. In this article, we present an approach to developing an introductory lab course. Identification of goals and student outcomes, particularly skills, and process and attitudinal…

Today's students find the traditional lecture-based teaching format less desirable and seem to prefer a more hands-on learning experience. Consequently, it has become necessary to redesign the introductory MIS course. This paper describes a new modular approach to delivering the introductory course. The primary focus is to provide students with…

In this article the lecture is examined as a teaching method. The elements of a good lecture are discussed as well as the negative aspects and pitfalls involved in using this means of instruction. Information is provided that may be helpful to instructors interested in improving the quality of their teaching with better lecturing techniques. (JD)

Author's main thesis here is that there has been but meager research on the question of how we should go about achieving goals and that there is a need for much more research into the question of teaching methods on the community college level. (Author/RK)

A study was done to test the assumptions faculty make about the relationship between teaching methods and educational objectives. Using a survey of staff and students involved in undergraduate courses in Building, Estate Management and Psychology at the National University of Singapore, the subjects were asked to rank order a set of 13 educational…

Describes the two functions of teaching and learning processes: short-range training and long-range education, and suggests that the course had better be carried out first via the Keller plan and then via lectures on exciting materials of the subject matter. (CC)

Small group teaching, with four stages of student participation, individual work, work in pairs, work in small groups of 4-6 members, and reporting back to the whole group, is adapted to the lecture situation allowing the lecturer to intervene at each stage to direct progress toward previously-determined objectives. (JMD)

Two relationships must be explored: (1) that between scholarship and teaching and (2) that between research in teaching and the engineering of teaching design. Consideration is given to dialogue in lectures, student reactions to lectures, skill sessions, and tutorials. (LBH)

A reference manual on teaching methods for medical school residents and clinician-teachers is presented. Five principles of learning for adult learners that apply to medical students, residents, and medical practitioners are identified. Attention is directed to teaching methods for lectures, grand rounds, seminars and journal clubs, teaching…

Teaching an entire class at one level inevitably leaves some students bored and frustrated; team teaching and individualized instruction eliminate this problem. A team consists of two to seven teachers, the most experienced being leader. He must analyze the strengths of the group and plan the syllabus accordingly, inviting guest instructors to…
