  • Briefly set out structure of session or section.
    • Lecture with dedicated Q&A following
      1. Make sure students have ample time to process, ideally every 15 minutes or so. 
      2. Inform students what to do if they need clarification or help during the lecture (e.g., Interrupt?  Raise hand? Use chat?)
    • Whole group discussion
    • Breakout groups

After Your Session...

  • Remind students where handouts are located (Iona website).
