Learning in Large Groups

One aspect of lectures that you might find quite challenging when you first get to university is that lecturers often have several hundred students going to each one! It can be difficult to learn in such a situation, especially when you might be used to being in a class of less than 30 students, and being able to ask the teacher a question any time you feel like it. Because there are so many students, lecturers teaching large classes may ask students to discuss a problem with the person sitting next to them. It is well worth taking the opportunity to learn from somebody else.

In addition, lecturers are likely to use videos and PowerPoint presentations in class, supported by online material and discussion boards which can be accessed out of class, to promote your learning and sense of community.
