Are long winded lectures educational mal-practice? Time to pay attention to the research.

Numerous studies have demonstrated that students retain little of our lectures, and research on determining the “average attention span,” while varying, seems to congregate around eight to ten minutes (“Attention Span Statistics,” 2015), (Richardson, 2010).

And this has a LOT to do with employee engagement and with leading change or organizational improvement. Those lecture-type talking head meetings and events simply do not effectively communicate. More inter-activity and participative involvement are needed to improve impacts. Does anyone actually remember ANYTHING from High School???

The challenge before us!!

I totally agree. The kids of today are not going to pay attention to a long lecture. 15 minutes videos in a play list is much more effective for inducing learning that 2 hours droning on.

4 key lessons from #social networks to drive better #engagement across your channels:


1. Content fuels everything


2. If it's not real time, then it's stale


3. Don't just give them something to look at, give them something to do


4. Foster connections between people


Social media #marketing no longer lives exclusively on social media. It needs to exist everywhere a consumer is interacting with your brand, especially #mobile , do you agree?
