Posted on 02:44 by Unknown
"In this paper, we share insights into what is known about what effective tutors do and do not do, and we present specific approaches for adapting effective tutoring strategies and applying them to large biology lecture classes"

Wood, W.B and Tanner, K.D. (2012) The Role of the Lecturer as Tutor: Doing What Effective Tutors Do in a Large Lecture Class. CBE Life Science Education 20(1) 3-9

Summary:
  • What is effective tutoring? Seven key characteristics
  • Transferring effective tutoring to a large lecture situation
