If you have trouble with lectures - unmannerly students, bored, not
learning, consider this principle: you can't solve a problem by staying at
the same level of understanding. You must go to a deeper level.
Learn to teach by a vastly more effective method! Your students will behave
better, they'll be motivated, and they'll learn much more. Come to Arizona
State University this June for a workshop on Modeling Instruction.
We are holding 2 Modeling Workshops:
for high school teachers: June 11 - 29
for post-secondary physics faculty: June 4 - 15, with an optional third week.
An accompanying post describes our work and results at the college level.
Cheers,
Jane
