Just got my Fall student evaluations. Number one complaint, "he didn't lecture" or "he only lectured after the test, going over what we missed..." For my Human Sex class I provided 10 minute "pre-lectures" via Blackboard Podcaster for the second half of the class. They seem to really like those. I plan to take more time explaining the process this semester and to provide the pre-lectures for all classes and all RAP's. I was curious as to how other address the "lack of lecture" comments. -- Herb Coleman, Ph.D Dir.
