Presentation The conflict between content and learning could be due to the finite demand of time to satisfy coverage of curriculum materials, while at the same time facilitating active learning. Face-to-face lectures, however effective they are, cannot completely resolve this conflict. To deal with this conflict, several strategies have been applied to the lecture format. Some of these strategies are based on the principles of blended learning that have significantly enhanced teaching effectiveness; these principles involve embedding information technological advances with pedagogy including: 1. Online course materials to cover some of the basic concepts prior to the lectures. 2. Online student-centered activities with specific learning objectives. 3. Using the Internet to identify multimedia items, such as animations, videos, and slideshows. 4. Collaborative Web-based case studies that can allow students to interact online. 5. Interface technology for instant feedback without the anxiety of grading students responses.

Formative Quiz Delivery of an effective lecture is giving a formative quiz at the end of the lecture. Regular formative assessments, in the form of quizzes, with immediate feedback are a vital part of effective lectures, helping to promote better learning. This can be achieved by encouraging a two-way communication. The importance of active engagement of students during the lecture is widely accepted. Quizzes can be given in a lecture prior to the closing remarks. They could consist of multiple-choice questions, or short written answers. Quizzes with higher cognitive questions (requiring that student mentally manipulate bits of information previously learned to create an answer) result in gain in students achievement.
