Speed

• Most instructors go too slowly

• A median (50%) rate is fine for undergrad classes

  • Because everyone must pass the exam

• In a three-hour class, your strategy must be different

• The typical student will learn:

  • One or two specific techniques

  • A groundwork of more general understanding

  • This will prepare them for later self-study

• Slower students will get this much whether you go quickly or slowly

• Faster ones will get more if you go faster

• I try to target the 75-80% mark
