Lectures, information dump & knowledge test, in general content presentation doesn’t lead to meaningful change in behavior in the absence of activity. There’s ongoing coaching with stretch assignments and feedback, and interacting with other practitioners…don’t assume a course solves a problem.

What I like about Lesley's presentations about Cybergogy are that they are informative from the perspective of thinking about teaching in a 3D environment but that they also incorporate aspects not possible in the 2D world. Much more vivid and interactive than a 2D version of the model. I took some screen captures of the event.

Student interaction is another great way to foster higher order thinking skills. Does the initial cost off set the long-term savings.
