COURSES TAUGHT AT McGILL UNIVERSITY
AND TEACHING METHODS
Lectures are given in the classroom using computer tablets, PowerPoint presentations, blackboards,
transparencies, and models, depending on the topic of a given course. Laboratory periods are utilized for
conducting experiments, problem solving, field trips, movies, discussions, quizzes and tests. The specific
combination depends on the type of course. Student evaluation is done by considering their performance in
assignments, lab reports, project work, term paper, quizzes, term tests and final examination. The specific
combination depends on the type of course taught. Questions and discussions are always encouraged both inside
and outside the classroom for all courses.
