[QUOTE="hutchphd, post: 6819345, member: 635497"] A farmer sells a mule. He says the mule is very obedient, and all you have to do is whisper in his ear. The buyer can't get the mule to do anything. He whispers, he yells, he cusses and smacks the mule but the mule won't move. He calls the farmer to complain.The farmer comes, picks up a 2X4, and hits the mule in the head. He gives the mule a simple command, and the mule obeys. "All you have to do is whisper in his ear," says the farmer.[I]"But first you have to get his attention."[/I] For me most true learning is preceeded by confusion. So the fact that confusion was engendered by a lecture is not necessarilly a negative quality measure. I am a great admirer of Prof. Lewin's lecture style. The fact that many folks were clearly stuck on the dogma underscores this. [/QUOTE]
