University lecturers receive a certain amount of hours for a certain number of points - these are then used for lectures, seminars, exams, tutorials, etc IF there had been MORE lectures and FEWER discussion seminars would the learning experience have been GREATER for you?

1. 2/5/2009 12:35:00 PMProbably wouldn't have made much difference as far as I'm concerned.
2. 2/5/2009 12:36:00 PMI think you learn more by interacting with other people to see different points of view.
3. 2/5/2009 12:45:00 PMIt depends so much on the content of the lectures and the seminars so its hard to say.
4. 2/5/2009 12:46:00 PMI prefer less lectures and more seminars.
5. 2/5/2009 12:49:00 PMA variety might be good but it also depends of the content. I think that discussions have been good for the content of this course.
6. 2/5/2009 12:53:00 PMIt wouldn't have been very interesting if all students came unprepared. it was interesting to hear others thoughts.
7. 2/5/2009 12:53:00 PMI need both comprehensible input through the seminars and the ability to talk about my thoughts and be able to share these with other students in the seminars.
8. 2/5/2009 12:54:00 PMAs i said before, for me i learn much trough discussion and to hear other peoples toughts about the subject that we are studying.
9. 2/5/2009 12:55:00 PMI would have been ways less motivated!
10. 2/5/2009 1:04:00 PMI believe that the seminars has given me a wider understanding of the subject.
11. 2/6/2009 8:25:00 AMI don't know. I am mainly used to the normal lectures and not really discussion seminars and I found this really interesting but I am not sure that if we had more lectures my learning experience would have been greater or not. That depences on other things as well (ínterest in subject etc)
12. 2/6/2009 8:27:00 AMI don't think so, but I don't know.
13. 2/6/2009 8:28:00 AMI´m not sure about that, i think discussion is very important, to analyse what we read, that creates more understanding.
14. 2/6/2009 8:29:00 AMI don't believe it would have benn better since the video tutorials were very informative and the seminars a good way to work on our speaking skills.
15. 2/6/2009 8:33:00 AMI dotn think it would be great if we dont have any seminars. Because by that was I would make myself understadn better.
16. 2/6/2009 8:33:00 AMI like dicussion seminars, where you can discuss and learn that way. If something is unclear you can just bring it up on the seminars. Besides, I like studying at home on my own accord.
17. 2/6/2009 8:33:00 AMI personally do not need the lectures that much. The book and online lectures are fine.
