Yesterday I had a 1.5 h lecture for a class. One of the big issues to me is the benefits/problems of team taught courses. In this particular course almost every lecture is given by a different faculty member. This course is among a number at the extreme end of the team taught course. The advantage is that each lecture is taught by someone who has more knowledge than when the same person has to cover a range of topics. The problem for the student is each lecturer has a different lecture style, a different emphasis, and different ideas of what types of information a student should learn. Not easy for the student.
