Enhancing Early Tertiary Students’ Education: a Novel Lecture Learning Objectives Strategy

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

While university lectures enable large volumes of complex material to be taught efficiently, this format requires students to discriminate between core concepts and examples, applications and anecdotes. Here we present a lecture slide learning objectives method which builds this capability in Level 1 tertiary students in preclinical sciences. Our method applies the principles of constructive alignment to individual teaching activities. Students report the use of this lecturing methodology results in improved focus, decreased stress during lectures and greater preparedness for assessment (n = 93). This practicable addition to the lecture slides greatly improves the student experience both during and following teaching sessions.
