In my class i find in interacitve learing is getting the item that I am talking about in there hands.Then asking if the part looks like what they had pictured from lecture.Most of the time it turns the switch on in there head and you can see it in reaction in there face that they got it.This way you know that you got point across to the. That is the best benfit that I have found that they got it.
Hi DANIEL,
Students have a full understanding when they can actually apply the concept.

In the course I teach I am passing around parts and discussing them at the same time.Then we go to lab and they put what they just learned to use.
Hi James ,
You really get your students involved. Students tend to really enjoy active learning, and they remember the lesson when active learning in incorporated.
Patricia Scales
Active learning works well for me by giving the lecture verably and at the same time use all kinds of cut aways of the subject. and then take any feed back from the students that they have to offer or i will throw out questions to them pertaining to the subject matter.
Hi Jeff,
Generally when a good explanation is provided before the actual lab. Students are more confident in performing the lab activity.
Patricia Scales
I have found that most of us learn better with hands on active learning but the instruction before the activity should help to take away the fear of High risk. Those of us that have achieved success before .Have no problem doing it again and again. When my students go to lab I want them not to fear the lab or activity. Success is found in achieving with out fear.
Hi Charles,
Awesome process. I like how you break down the learning process into small chunks. Most learners are hands-on learners.
Patricia Scales
For the most part our students are hands on people ans let you know from the first. I like to break up the lecture into parts and pass around a part of a component and let them, in small groups try to figure out how it works. Then a little more lecture and another part. Now tell me how it works and how it is related to the last part and so on. Then out to lab and work on the whole component. Then review time and test. Chuck Peters
Hi John,
Whenever students encounter problems in the lab that are to be taken care of in the workplace, they really see the benefit of learning and how the knowledge can help them in the workplace.

In Advanced Diagnostics class I try to get as much live work as possible. When we can't get live work we have set up lab vehicles with realistic type problems that the student can diagnosis using the methoeds we talked about in lecture.

Hi Michael,
I like the tangible part of your lecture before the students even get to lab. Students learn better when they can actually see it and do it.
Patricia Scales
During lecture I am passing around parts and discussing them at the same time.This enables the students to put the parts with the lecture .Then we go to lab and they put what they just learned to use.
Hi James,
I love this approach. I like to tell my students what we are going to do and why. I explain, do it, and then have the students do it. Students tend to retain more by me taking this approach.

Hi Bob,
Safety is very important in the lab setting. The instructor must ensure students are following safety procedures while performing.

Hi Kenneth,
Active learning promotes better understanding.

when i teach course 102 we talk about measurments of different types so i show them how too do it then have them do it in class and it makes it easier in lb for them

Active classroom time that describes and demonstrates the procedures we will follow in lab.When in lab,procedures will be expected to be followed so the tasks can be completed in a safe and timely manner.
