Brandi,
I know what you mean about feeling you must lecture since the students don't read. I think we all have those feelings at some point. However, I finally decided that by doing this I was causing more problems than creating solutions. The more I lectured, the more they expected lecture. My students now understand that I do not regurgitate information they should have gotten from their readings. It took a while but I do believe they now learn at a deeper level.
