Research Blog #10: Your Case

Berrett, Dan. "Teaching." How 'Flipping' the Classroom Can Improve the Traditional Lecture. The Chronicle of Higher Education, 19 Feb. 2012. Web. 05 Mar. 2012. <http://chronicle.com/article/How-Flipping-the-Classroom/130857/>.
My argument may be extensively illustrated through Dan Barrett's article presented above.  The text demonstrates how active teaching strategies are effective learning techniques for students rather than traditional college lectures.  In my previous post, I presented a diagram illustrating how active teaching techniques compare to the classic lecture.  This article provides further evidence in regards to the retaining knowledge.  It may also be useful to know that although there remains concrete evidence that active teaching results in higher knowledge retention, many still argue the traditional lecture results in a better learning environment.  http://ehis.ebscohost.com/ehost/detail?vid=4&hid=4&sid=cce1d73b-abdd-48d0-9652-438e4b4dc266%40sessionmgr13&bdata=JnNpdGU9ZWhvc3QtbGl2ZQ%3d%3d#db=aph&AN=10670552 The following article offers interesting points that support the use of traditional lecture over active or experiential teaching.
