Lecturing for more than 20 minutes at a time!

It is very interesting to find out that since I have been teaching for awhile to know that lecturing for more than 20 minutes at one time is considered not a really good teaching style.  I now understand that taking needed breaks by doing something else other than continual lecturing is something that I really have to work on.

This is a good idea in reducing the number of students who accidently fall asleep in class because they are engulfed in busy lifestyle outside of the classroom.  Lecturing for 15 to 20 minutes followed by a group activity aimed at course objectives have worked well for my classes.
