Lecturing for excellent teaching involves "going beyond the textbook." It also requires using effective delivery techniques, enabling students to become active learning participants, and maintaining attention through "change-ups." Key questions and resources for effective lecturing include the following:

• Teaching by Lecture: How can I best prepare and organize the content of a lecture, and how can I present the material most effectively in class?

• Delivering a Lecture: Which strategies of opening, delivering, and closing my lecture will enable me to capture and maintain student interest?

• Twenty Ways to Make Lectures More Participatory: What can I stress or add in my lectures to foster the kind of student involvement that will enhance their learning?

• The “Change-Up” in Lectures: How can I "punctuate" my lectures to add variety and  overcome lapses in student attention?
