I chose to observe General Chemistry 1 because unlike the other two classes, this class is a lecture, which means there is no doubt that the teaching methods of the professors would be different.

For decades, professors have struggled to keep student’s sole attention during lectures. This dilemma has become more prevalent in recent years with the increased presence of laptops in lecture halls across the country.

FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS There are many ways that professors can integrate technology into their classroom. One way is through the use of recording their lectures using both video and audio.
