What does LGI mean in UNIVERSITIES

Large Group Instruction (LGI) is an effective strategy used to teach in classrooms. It is a form of instruction where the teacher works with many students at once in order to facilitate learning.

Students benefit from LGI as it can be a great way for them to learn new topics, gain insight into a subject, and engage with their peers. LGI also offers teachers the opportunity to assess student understanding quickly and easily across the group.

LGI usually involves the teacher giving an introductory lecture on a topic followed by smaller group activities that allow each student to apply the information they have been given through discussion or activity-based tasks. This helps students make connections between what they have learned and how it applies to real-world situations.

Some advantages of using LGI include its cost-effectiveness, since only one instructor is needed for instruction, and its ability to reach a large number of students quickly and easily with minimal preparation time for both the teacher and students prior to instruction taking place. Additionally, it allows everyone in the class to get involved in learning, which encourages participation among all participants.

Some disadvantages of using LGI include its lack of flexibility; due to its one-size-fits-all approach, it may not be suitable for certain types of learners who need more individualized attention or time for exploration. Additionally, there may be less opportunities for personalized feedback or tailored activities since much of the instruction will be general rather than specific for individuals or small groups.
