This paper presents background information on "why" some students may not be responsive to the traditional lecture/discussion classroom format. It offers a model, based on a "high-tech," state-of-the-art classroom facility, for revitalizing lectures. The author recounts her own classroom experiences as she attempted to integrate technology into her lectures. Despite initial facility inadequacies, the interactive/video classroom was constructed. With video, computer, and graphics display options in the classroom, the author was able to create a learning environment that was consistently intriguing, combine visual and interactive experiences with traditional lecture/discussion methods, develop a series of activities that unified learning, and use a variety of approaches that helped avoid boredom and tap into the various learning styles of students. Student responses to the technological integration have been extremely positive, with an increase in the number of course sections. Disadvantages of this teaching method include lack of resources, necessity for extended training, and lack of flexibility of teaching space. (Contains 10 references.) (YKH)
