Seminars

Yesterday we started looking at seminars and the difference between seminars and lectures.
We saw that lectures are more passive whereas seminars are active and we also saw why some students like seminars (a chance to 'shine') and why others do not like them so much.

• How many differences can you remember between lectures and seminars?

The 'MySkills' site from Essex university has a nice section on seminars. Have a look at the video overview to watch some students talking about seminars.
