In 2012, for example,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/lecture-theatres-to-go-the-way-of-the-dodo-9893\">The Conversation<\/a>\u00a0reported the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) was tearing down its lecture theatres.<\/p>\n<p>Many new and redesigned tertiary campuses are not including blueprinted lecture theatres. The University of Tasmania, for example, is in the process of creating the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.utas.edu.au\/northern-transformation\/inveresk-campus\/precinct-plan\">Inveresk Precinct<\/a>\u00a0with non-traditional teaching and learning spaces.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Why are lecture theatres on the way out?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Mostly this is happening because there are better ways to learn and to prepare for employment. In 2014,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.uts.edu.au\/partners-and-community\/initiatives\/city-campus-master-plan\/campus-development-news-archive\/2014-news\/april-2014-news\/its-whats-inside-counts-guide-new-learning-spaces-uts\">UTS explained<\/a>\u00a0its rationale for demolishing lecture theatres was not physical, but educational.<\/p>\n<p>For universities, a primary reason for cancelling lectures is to improve pedagogy or teaching methods. In the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.acode.edu.au\/pluginfile.php\/9235\/mod_resource\/content\/7\/white%20paper.pdf\">ACODE survey<\/a>, only 7% disagreed with this rationale.<\/p>\n<p>Times Higher Education\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeshighereducation.com\/news\/lectures-dont-work-but-we-keep-using-them\/2009141.article\">reported<\/a>\u00a0that, by 2013, more than 700 studies had all found lectures are an ineffective teaching approach. There is little\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pure.bond.edu.au\/ws\/portalfiles\/portal\/27948857\/Does_digital_scholarship_through_online_lectures_affect_student_learning.pdf\">empirical evidence<\/a>\u00a0to prove that lectures are an optimal way to learn or to develop graduate career skills.<\/p>\n<p>Lectures are passive. They seldom get students to do anything, beyond listening and perhaps taking notes. Lectures fail to foster deep learning and student engagement. The purpose of the lecture is called into question.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/espace.curtin.edu.au\/handle\/20.500.11937\/60852\">Australian students<\/a>\u00a0have been voting with their feet. They have continually chosen to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ro.uow.edu.au\/jutlp\/vol3\/iss2\/3\/\">forgo lectures<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ro.uow.edu.au\/jutlp\/vol17\/iss5\/15\/\">preferring<\/a>\u00a0content delivered online.<\/p>\n<p>This learning mode particularly appeals to mature-aged students, who are working while studying and have difficulty fitting long lecture blocks into their schedules. And this\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeshighereducation.com\/news\/student-profile-key-lectures-future-australia\">description<\/a>\u00a0fits a high proportion of university students today.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Are students or employers concerned?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Early in the pandemic (June through September 2020), i-graduate conducted a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ieaa.org.au\/blog\/i-graduate-covid-19-survey-results\">survey<\/a>\u00a0of Australian domestic and international students. Of the 24,000 respondents, 70% were satisfied with how the universities adapted to COVID-19 and 68% with their overall online learning experience.<\/p>\n<p>While students expressed current satisfaction with online lectures (about 70%), only half thought they should remain. Notably, students were not surveyed about their preference for the online recorded long-form lecture versus alternatives.<\/p>\n<p>A recent FutureLearn\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.futurelearn.com\/info\/do-employers-value-online-learning\">survey<\/a>\u00a0of just over 1,000 American employers asked: \u201cAre you more likely to hire applicants with online education since the pandemic?\u201d While 75% responded yes, 63% said they would need to \u201crethink\u201d the hiring process.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>But how will students learn what they need to know?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The questions within these surveys are asked in a Shakespearean binary: to lecture, or not to lecture. On-campus or online. The reality is not so simple.<\/p>\n<p>Lectures are not the only approach to university education. Furthermore, the choice of on-campus or online learning is now mostly redundant.<\/p>\n<p>All students spend a lot of their time within online \u201clearning management systems\u201d. Even before the pandemic, curriculum without an accompanying website was rare.<\/p>\n<p>The lecture is still the lecture, whether on-campus, or recorded and posted online. The lecture does not teach any better just because it is digital.<\/p>\n<p>Searching for, planning and booking travel is flourishing online (or at least it was during non-pandemic times). Streaming services have radically changed how people watch television. It is time for universities to catch up to other industries and take full advantage of the opportunities of the internet.<\/p>\n<p>It might be time to let the lecture die, now that other modes of learning and interactions (<a href=\"https:\/\/learningportal.iiep.unesco.org\/en\/issue-briefs\/improve-learning\/teachers-and-pedagogy\/effective-and-appropriate-pedagogy\">pedagogies<\/a>) can thrive.<\/p>\n<p>The University of Southern Queensland, for example, is rolling out a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/digitalfirst.usq.edu.au\/\">suite of alternative teaching approaches<\/a>. Most of these are available online. Examples include panel discussions, animated explanations, online experimentation, problem-solving demonstration videos and website hunts.<\/p>\n<p>Such approaches are a sign of the nature of educational change brought forward by the pandemic, which was perhaps long overdue in the higher education sector.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Author Bios: <\/strong>Shelley Kinash is Professor of Higher Education at the University of Southern Queensland, Colin Jones is Associate Professor and Senior Academic Developer also at the University of Southern Queensland and Joseph Crawford is a Lecturer at the University of Tasmania<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Throughout the world, COVID-19 health regulations have made the on-campus lecture mostly defunct.
