Re: [Phys-l] Confessions of a Converted Lecturer #2

[Richard Hake <rrhake@earthlink.net>]

Some subscribers to Phys-L might be interested in a post titled "Re: 
Confessions of a Converted Lecturer #2 [Hake (2010b)]. The abstract 
reads:

************************************************
ABSTRACT: In response to "Re: Confessions of a Converted Lecturer" 
[Hake (2010a)]; UK physicist  Lewis Elton (2010) wrote that:

(a) he had abandoned the passive-student lecture  in 1969, long 
before Eric Mazur,

(b) his contributions to the debate over lectures had been neglected, and

(c) he would  appreciate anything I might be able to do  to remedy "b".

In this post I attempt to remedy the perceived neglect of Elton's 
contributions by quoting extensively from his article "Could 
undergraduate physics teaching be better?" [Elton (2004)].
