Twenty Terrible Reasons for Lecturing by Graham Gibbs – another Free eBook

by · June 21, 2013

We are pleased to announce another FREE eBook from the OCSLD archives. Twenty Terrible Reasons for Lecturing by Graham Gibbs is available for download now in Kindle and iBooks formats.

“A number of reasons commonly given for lecturing and claims commonly made for the efficiency of lecturers are examined for their basis in empirical evidence and common sense. Most of these claims are found to be somewhat weak. It appears that lecturing takes place rather more often than can be reasonably justified. The real reasons for the popularity of lecturing amongst lecturers are then examined”

Free OCLSD eBook from the online shop, where there are now five titles available. Our new book, Assessment Literacy: The Foundation for Improving Student Learning is available in paperback and kindle formats.
