Lecture also provides the teacher opportunities to employ various teaching methods and ways of presenting their content therein. ]]> 2018-01-10 21:34:59 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220402873 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220403472 One disadvantage of lecture is that it is very easy to be done poorly and in a very dull manner. Without proper planning, the lecture can be an hour or more of talking at students, rather than a rich instructional time filled with examples of content, multimedia, etc.]]> 2018-01-10 21:37:46 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220403472 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220403734 One advantage of lecture is it allows the teacher to answer students' questions in real time as the material is being taught or instructions are being given.]]> 2018-01-10 21:38:51 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220403734 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220404001 One disadvantage of lecture is it generally does not require the students to interact any further than just copying down information written on the board or typed into a PowerPoint slide.]]> 2018-01-10 21:39:52 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220404001 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220410699 One advantage of lecture is that it is a fairly straightforward way to transfer ideas and knowledge to students. If teachers are crunched for time or have a plan for a creative activity that will take up most of class, lecturing can be a brief way to teach students what they need to know without taking up too much time or making the information too complicated, depending on the lecture style. ]]> 2018-01-10 22:07:08 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220410699 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220410750 An advantage of a lecture is that teachers can simplify and organize complex topics in an efficient delivery for students.]]> 2018-01-10 22:07:24 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220410750 emily_teller_13 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220411078 An advantage of lecturing is that it gives the teacher time to relay a lot of information. The teacher can provide real in depth details on the subject matter. ]]> 2018-01-10 22:08:49 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220411078 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220411128 Advantage: I can make sure my students are receiving the information the correct way the first time and have fewer opportunities to confuse themselves. ]]> 2018-01-10 22:09:02 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220411128 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220411250 One disadvantage of a lecture is that a teacher can talk for too long when students have spaced out and stopped paying attention. ]]> 2018-01-10 22:09:30 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220411250 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220411329 A disadvantage of lecture is that it can be very boring for students. Frankly, students need to be engaged in order to learn and oftentimes lectures are the exact opposite of engaging. ]]> 2018-01-10 22:09:54 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220411329 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220411334 Disadvantage: It is incredibly hard to get a class refocused on the lecture after any tiny distraction.]]> 2018-01-10 22:09:56 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220411334 emily_teller_13 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220411392 A disadvantage of lecturing is that it is very easy to lose students' interest. Students can only listen to a lecture for so long so lectures should be chunked so that students can stay focused. 

]]> 2018-01-10 22:10:11 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220411392 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220412003 An advantage of lecture is that it can be the easiest and most efficient ways of communicating a large amount of information to students. For instance, one lecture in a history class can easily cover a two to five hundred year time span.]]> 2018-01-10 22:13:13 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220412003 colin_moog_13 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220412034 Lecturing puts a teacher at a disadvantage because the students are made into inactive recipients of knowledge, rather than active participants in the learning process. Because of this, it is easy to lose students' attention. Often times learning during lecture is not deep-rooted because it is not experiential. Another big disadvantage of lecturing is the burden taken on by the teacher. For an entire class, the teacher has to have material prepared to talk about. Although a daily lesson plan is good, an entire class worth solely based on the teacher can be too much pressure.]]> 2018-01-10 22:13:22 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220412034 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220412358 A disadvantage of lecturing is how boring and linear it can be for both the teacher and their students. Lecture is one-way and can therefore cause students to become inactive or uninterested in what the teacher is saying, therefore causing student's to lose attention and fail to retain important information.]]> 2018-01-10 22:15:11 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220412358 colin_moog_13 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220412617 Lecturing has the advantage of being directed by the teacher. When the teacher has complete control of the lesson for the day, they can talk about the curriculum in the ways that the class needs to. Another advantage of lecturing is that there is minimal room for disruptions because the students are not free to operate in the room, aside from sitting and listening to the instructor.]]> 2018-01-10 22:16:41 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220412617 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220418767 An advantage of a lecture is creating a direct way for students to get the information they need.Teachers can break down complex ideas and explain them without having students read pages of text from a book. ]]> 2018-01-10 23:01:50 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220418767 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220418966 A disadvantage of lecturing is doing it too much makes your classroom redundant and boring. Students cannot sit in a desk and learn if the teacher is just talking at them during a lecture. Lectures are easy for teachers to do, but making lectures worthwhile for students becomes the challenge for teachers. ]]> 2018-01-10 23:03:30 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220418966 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220419165 One advantage to lecture is that it allows the teacher to be in control of exactly what content is being taught to the students. Lecture also gives students the opportunity to practice discerning relevant and essential information from one speaker or source. Lastly, lecture can be very straightforward for both teachers and students who are used to this method of teaching. ]]> 2018-01-10 23:05:39 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220419165 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220419499 One major disadvantage to lecture is being able to keep the students engaged. Successful lectures require careful planning, practice, and implementation of proper speaking/presenting methods to keep listeners engaged. Lectures can also be boring for the teacher to administer on regular basis. ]]> 2018-01-10 23:08:53 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220419499 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220420045 One positive is that it is a great way to connect with your students. By incorporating them into the lecture, they can feel more connected to the learning material.

With foreign language (my content area) in particular, discovery learning is encouraged but at times the teacher needs to take the lead role. In this way lecturing can lead the way to discovery learning, but should be used sparingly.]]> 2018-01-11 15:00:54 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220609580 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220610657 A disadvantage of lecture is that it assumes that all students will retain the content that is delivered, regardless of students' individual learning styles. ]]> 2018-01-11 15:02:47 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/220610657 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/223631430 Lectures work well for quick, efficient delivery of content and allows the teacher to present new content in a clear, organized way. ]]> 2018-01-23 04:22:33 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/223631430 https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/223631527 Lectures are not the best method of communicating content in a meaningful way. Learning occurs through many different forms of information processing (audio, visual, spatial) and the delivery of content should match that to be truly effective. ]]> 2018-01-23 04:23:36 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_elgert/zsjkn5g17kkv/wish/223631527
