LibArts vs. Ivy League

<p>My son (rising junior) is taking an intro psych class at a university this summer, mixed in with mostly college kids. Although the class is small (only 20 kids) the format is straight lecture. The instructor does stop to answer questions if the kids have them. When I asked my son if there is ever any discussion, he said he couldn’t imagine how there could be discussion. There is just lots of information being presented. I’m curious whether Swarthmore and other small LAC’s would even have discussion in a basic intro psych type of class?</p>
