High school and college courses with a great deal of content are facing increasing difficulties in sharing that content in the classroom. The flood of new information available in most fields, our students' inability to retain and integrate disciplinary content, and the increasing specialization and professionalization in many disciplines all combine to make course design increasingly difficult for instructors.
