The author ismore convinced now than ever, that classroom reformation, including deployment of activelearning strategies, would happen only if the institution mandates it!The Pros and Cons of the Lecture FormatWhen asked why he/she lectures, one faculty responded: “It is a tradition. It was part of mytraining, and seems to dwell in me and seems like what I should be doing. I feel guilty when Iam not lecturing” (13). This candid statement suggests one of the great dilemmas faced by allwho teach at the postsecondary

Students listen, take notes, and are allowed to ask questions at the end of the lecture orduring office hours. There seem to be less interest (by most of the faculty interviewed) in theprocess by which the course content is delivered during the lecture period, and more of aconcern whether the rate of delivery would allow the instructor to finish the course on time.

Agriculturalistsand hunters possess this strength.In addition to these eight intelligences, the so-called “candidate” intelligences of spiritual andexistential intelligence were not included in this study, as these have not been fully endorsedby Gardner, due to their failure to fulfil all the criteria to be considered intelligences (Gardner,2006).One criticism of the theory of Multiple Intelligences has been that these eight areas do notrepresent intelligence(s) at

Traditional and non-traditional students valued both soft and hard skills they gainedfrom these projects, but emphasized the refinement of soft skills. The formal assessment of thecourse by the institution revealed that all students, without any exception, appreciated theirexperience from the EL projects.References1. Balachandran, S

The existing STEM workforce is aging, with many individuals nearing retirement. Women and minorities are underrepresented in most S&E educational pursuits at a time when they constitute the majority of college students and therefore the majority of the future workforce. The market for STEM-educated U.S. citizens is becoming much more competitive
