Teaching innovation
"I teach Behavioural Medicine to Family Medicine (FM) residents. During their orientation lectures, I divide the residents into groups of 4 - and ask each group to research basic information about Behavioural Medicine
i) define Behavioural Medicine in the FM context
ii) what are some of the outcomes associated with the practice of Behavioural Med in FM, etc..
They have 15 minutes - and then they e-mail me 'point form' summaries of their findings that I work into my PowerPoint. They certainly seem more engaged doing this than when I lecture to them about the same topics."

That is an interesting way to apply the principles of inverted classroom. The more the learners are involved, the more likely it is they will integrate that new knowledge. Another interesting way to involve participants during presentation is to use phone apps allowing them to vote on questions or issues during the presentation. Poll Everywhere is an example I have seen used successfully.
