Hi Karla
A couple of things
Larry originally sent around a great first day 4s activity...which gets at the role of the teacher in the active classroom
http://www.teambasedlearning.org/Resources/Documents/1st-dayQ%20article.pdf
I sent around a fact density study a couple of weeks ago
The effect of lecture information density on medical student achievement
You can get it from the list serve archive
http://list.olt.ubc.ca/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind1208&L=TEAMLEARNING-L&T=0&O=A&P=11635
Or I can send on Monday (don't know how to send a pdf from my ipad)
It's a 4s first day activity
Jim Sibley
Sorry for brief message -sent from my iPad

For example, someone (I think it was Jim Sibley... ) sent around a link to a study that compared learning from lectures with three levels of fact density. I'd like to create an activity where I'd summarize the methods and then ask ad hoc teams to predict the findings. Anyone have suggestions of studies like what I'm looking for? I'm particularly interested in studies where the findings might seem counter-intuitive to students. Thanks. Karla
