I am a new instructor for a course designed for 12 weeks that because of holidays this fall is shortened to 10 weeks. I am having trouble fitting in all the material without overwhelming the students. Also, the material I have been given for the course is generally in lecture (powerpoint) format. I would like to find other activities that could be done in class to facilitate learning, besides lecturing, but I am quite short on time and creativity and am feeling a bit overwhelmed myself. Does anyone have any suggestions?
