Lectures are only one educational process:
teacher transmits information do not encourage dialogue, for example
or encourage student reflection ‘inspirational’ effects are rare and short-
lived many opportunities for student errors in
getting information and making sense of it
lectures cannot deal with a variety of students
Q. why aren’t lectures scrapped?

lectures are no more economical than other methods in transmitting information to large numbers
they are efficient, but less so than reading they will ‘cover the ground’ by the teacher,
but not by the student learning students are passive and dependent,
promoting a surface approach to learning
not effective for deep learning outcomesneeding activity, responsibility, interaction
