Physicists Seek To Lose The Lecture As Teaching Tool

Here is a very interesting story I found on NPR written by Emily Hanford. With so much CME built around the lecture one wonders what the physicians actually take away from the Continuing Medical Education (Instructional) experience. The story actually shows the power of the principles adult educators have heralded for years as a way to design instruction that is consistent with what is known about adults as learners.
