about your own learning how did you learn?,What do you remember best?,The Lecture Model,Economical Able to cover large amounts of information in a short period of time,Teachers are in the active role and students are in a passive,receptive role,Students are listeners NOT learners,What research tells us:,Most people only remember 20%of what they hear.,The longer the lecture,less of the information
