What's Inside

Welcome to the University of Minnesota's online workshop on Designing Smart Lectures. At this point, the goal of this workshop is probably becoming clear. We hope to help you redesign your lectures to engage students actively and creatively.

How to Use this Tutorial

Using the above menu you can enter this workshop at any point. If you're a first-time visitor, we suggest that you begin with the two mini-workshops. The first mini-workshop on video is a good example of several lecturing techniques in an auditorium. The second mini-workshop on video offers specific strategies for planning and delivering lecture content. The ensuing sections—Planning, Delivering, and Evaluating Lectures—are a logical sequence to follow, but you can investigate any of these topics at any time.

For further research on any of these topics, we've provided an annotated Resources section.
