Please join Jim Connely (McGraw Hill Education) & Richard Pirkle (Tennessee Tech University), as they talk about the importance of connecting lecture and lab concepts. Richard talks about how "context" helps students learn topics quicker and more effectively.  In this podcast, Richard talks about strategies in the physical lab PLUS he talks about how he uses McGraw Hill Virtual Labs with Saladin A&P Connect for the best results. 

Making Connections with lecture and lab

• Design an interactive experience that allows students to learn through doing and visualizing.
• Students appreciate applied learning and low-stress assignments, resulting in increased classroom participation and engagement.
• Authentic assignments reinforce the application of concepts learned in lecture to a simulated lab experience.
