Description
Large lecture classes pose unique challenges for instructors that are not found in smaller classes. Typically in large lecture classes, students are packed into rows in an auditorium facing the instructor, which limits the opportunity for pedagogical approaches such as small-group discussions, team work, and other activities. Additionally, instructors must find ways to adapt to a student body with a wide range of ages, abilities, learning styles, and interests.
