Life at University
It's been a while since I've been at uni (1997), and Canterbury is very different to Lincoln. Lincoln is very calm, quiet and peaceful. Waiting outside for a lecture, I'm practically alone, where are all the people I wonder? The ability to sit under a tree and have some silence before a lecture is a treat. I've been lucky to be able to sit in on lectures and it is interesting to observe the students from an outsiders point of view. Thoughts: Lecturers allow thinking breaks Personable, presentations, readings and supplementary info avail online About half have laptops open on slides and take notes digitally Fairly studious, little talking, when asked to think pair talk, they do Use of video, interactive, questioning learning intentions shared - by the end of the lesson Learning lots but the 100 level seems quite basic, on earth science - beginnings of life - really enjoying it and many notes that can be used at school, quite accessible information but usefu...
