Rail-babbler - Eupetes macrocerus: "Lectures Didn't Work in 1350—and They Still Don't Work Today," "Don't Give Up on the Lecture," Together these blogposts embody good ideas about MIT OCW-centric, C.C., World University and School's approaches to learning, particularly for the degree side.


Hi D and G and Universitians, 

I blogged today about the article you sent you sent yesterday, D, in relation to the article G emailed, with a blogpost about it too -

Volgelkop Bowerbird - Amblyornis inornatus ... "Lectures Didn't Work in 1350—and They Still Don't Work Today" 



White-crested Helmetshrike - Prionops plumatus: Added the article "Don't Give Up on the Lecture"


Together these blogposts embody good ideas about MIT OCW-centric, C.C., World University and School's approaches to learning, particularly for the degree side. 


I also added the two article URLs you emailed to the 'Education' and a few other wiki subjects (such as Virtual Worlds) at WUaS - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Education

Walthausen, Abigail. 2013. [http://www.theatlantic.com/education/archive/2013/11/dont-give-up-on-the-lecture/281624/ Don't Give Up on the Lecture: Teachers who stand in front of their classes and deliver instruction are not "out-of-touch experts"—they're role models]. November 22. theatlantic.com
