Craig Evans, faculty member at DCTC participated in a recent MPR discussion about scientific studies that indicate college students clock fewer study hours.  Instructor Evans brought to light the benefits of the accelerated teaching methodology used in many of DCTC’s programs.  The methodology is based upon the science of enhancing long-term memory through a smorgasbord of techniques.  Center to this methodology is “meeting the student where they are at” and connecting the new information to that student’s existing knowledge. Listen to the podcast of this discussion at

Thank you, Craig, for carrying the message that DCTC is learner focused and at the cutting edge of learning.
