Using the model of our lab science classes and the corpus of "no significant difference" research, we substituted 2 hours of lab time for one hour of face time. Students sign up for lab at hours relatively convenient for them. Since we have lost funding an our half-time lab director, we have moved to 1 hour lab/ 1 hour at home. Much of what students do in the lab is testable in unit tests, and there is some task-based learning going on. We need the lab because there are a number of students with inadequate facilities at home (no computer, phone-line access, no satisfactory way to make digital recordings, never keep current java, etc.). Ain't like in them ivy-league schools. TBob Robert D.

If your school has a lab hour, can you please write me back and let me know? I would also be curious to know what students do during that time.
