The Oxbridge tutorial system was established in the 1800s at the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. [1] It is still practised today, and consists of undergraduate students being taught by college fellows, or sometimes doctoral students and post-docs [2]) in groups of one to three on a weekly basis.
At the two campuses of St. John's College, U.S. and a few other American colleges with a similar version of the Great Books program, a "tutorial" is a class of 12–16 students who meet regularly with the guidance of a tutor. The tutorial focuses on a certain subject area (e.g., mathematics tutorial, language tutorial) and generally proceeds ...
More specifically, as described in the Chronicle of Higher Education, [1] these are approximately 60 second presentations with a specific structure. They are not just brief (one minute) presentations: although Dr. McGrew had success with "one minute lectures" [2] at the University of Northern Iowa as did Dr. Kee [3] at the University of Leeds.
A lecture (from Latin: lectura ' reading ') is an oral presentation intended to present information or teach people about a particular subject, for example by a university or college teacher. Lectures are used to convey critical information, history, background, theories, and equations.
[1] [2] The lowest triplet state of an annulene is, according to Baird's rule, aromatic when it has 4n π-electrons and antiaromatic when the π-electron count is 4n + 2, where n is any positive integer. This trend is opposite to that predicted by Hückel's rule for the ground state, which is usually the lowest singlet state (S 0).
Such lectures are a key part of flip teaching in which the initial work of communicating the essentials of the topic is done by the video lesson. [2] [3] [4] A study shows that there is hardly any difference in correctly answered questions when students were divided into two groups that used either live lecture or video lecture. [5]
The Carnegie rule is a rule of thumb suggesting how much outside-of-classroom study time is required to succeed in an average higher education course in the U.S. system. Typically, the Carnegie Rule is reported as two or more hours of outside work required for each hour spent in the classroom. [1]
