I love how the instructor shows how he moves constantly and directs questions to students across the room as he does so. Quite often when faculty hear about a round classroom their first question is “but where would I stand?” It seems that standing still is not a big part of the experience, unless you…

A scientific approach to learning and teaching (evidence based education)” just came out this summer. He provides an exceptionally clear overview of what the science of learning has revealed about how to create opportunities for learning and to promote retention and…

Does anyone here have experience with or know of resources for teaching in a large round arena-style lecture hall? We are excited that a new building currently under construction will have an arena that will seat 400 students. One benefit of a round classroom is that the seating will be only about 6-8 rows deep. Students also…
