my two cents still lecturing is still important but it important WHY you do it....is it is response to student needs or questions? and it is important HOW much you do.....small mini-lectures interspersed in activities is likely something to aim for there are no definitive rules here I have faculty who almost never lecture in their TBL courses and faculty who will on occasion give a 50 minute lecture (usually on a topic they couldn't figure out how to TBL) JIm On Tue, Apr 24, 2012 at 10:45 AM, Carson, Ron <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > As I'm plugging forward, trying to wrap my head around TBL, I have a > simple question.
