Lhota was outlining the initial design of the course as I arrived, so I didn't really catch that, but they're now talking about some of the changes they made: removing discussion boards and increasing in-class discussion via "socratic seminars" and science cafes
Socratic seminars: students prepared to discuss a topic, had an in-class discussion (possibly within groups?), then wrote a reflection; helpful but hard to grade equitably
Science cafes involved short presentations
