In both Part One and Part Two, many of you will be required to initiate one or more seminars with a brief formal presentation. In nearly all Part One subjects, seminars take place every fortnight to debate topics of an introductory nature. For Part Two seminars, groups of students meet with one or two members of staff, on a regular basis, to discuss and exchange ideas concerning more specialised topics. Topics for discussion will be given to you in advance. It is important to realise that tutorials and seminars are for active participation, as opposed to silent note-taking.
Seminars are compulsory.
Seminars have proved a popular way of learning and have been increased, particularly in Part Two, to take account of this demand.
