The pitfall I chose to address was #3, “Sage on the Stage”. Although I feel all of the pitfalls mentioned were important, I think it will be difficult for me as an instructor to move away from the podium style lecturing to a more collaborative way of educating. Even though I know it will be challenging, I am excited for this opportunity to improve the quality of my teaching and the ability for my students to synthesize and retain the information presented in the course.
