Less lecturing allows students to feel more motivated to take a hands-on approach to their learning experience while also giving them the opportunity \u00a0to understand topics from a &#8220;big picture&#8221; view. Studies of similar labs show that students working in this setting will understand and retain the material better than students learning in a lecture only classroom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an attempt to make the process of learning easier and more beneficial for students, the College of Sciences and the Physics department have created a new interactive lab for physics students.
