Where I will part company is if you are implying that a discussion based approach is less demanding on a teacher and takes less skill to teach well. The opposite is true; good teaching is much more difficult in a discussion based setting and to do it well takes more prep not less. I prepare far more when I teach an Harvard case than when I do something close to a traditional lecture in my professional life. Last edited by pelagius; 07-23-2007 at 06:57 PM. |

What that fellow did is something I would not do with a class (or at all, really). Pelagius' Gospel Doctrine notes are right up my alley. When the sort of thing you described happens I usually just go into my own scripture reading. I might try to speak up and attempt to help things onto a more productive track, but that's the short road to being viewed as the problem in "all is well in zion" Mormondom.
