Evaluation of a Faculty Development Program Aimed at Increasing Residents' Active Learning in Lectures

From this months Journal of Graduate Medical Education we have

Bonnie C. Desselle, Robin English, George Hescock, Andrea Hauser, Melissa Roy, Tong Yang, and Sheila W. Chauvin (2012) Evaluation of a Faculty Development Program Aimed at Increasing Residents' Active Learning in Lectures. Journal of Graduate Medical Education: December 2012, Vol. 4, No. 4, pp. 516-520.

in which the authors showed that a one hour  faculty development program increased faculty use of active learning strategies and residents' engagement in active learning during resident core curriculum lectures.

Sounds like a pretty good return on investment.

What do you all think?
