:Wikipedia is WP:NOT a set of tutorials or a web directory of tutorials.  Sorry. --Perfecto  05:39, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Raises possible contradiction with:
"While many writers refer to a mere list of instructions or tips as a tutorial, this usage can be misleading."
This seems to go against the rest of the article. While technically correct, common usage of the word "Tutorial" for list of instructions means that the article cannot simply be re-written without mentioning this in the intro. --Zebas (talk) 20:08, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

message: Perhaps someone would be kind enough to expand on the section dealing with supervision at Cambridge and Oxford. That is a particularly interesting area worthy of elaboration. (Unfortunately I've had no experience with them so can't contribute). Nicknz 04:59, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe supervision is purely a Cambridge term. At Oxford they are referred to as tutorials, abbreviated to 'tut' in writing (but pronounced 'tute'). Bhuna71 (talk) 01:01, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

message: There's a bit about Australia here and it is just about right, but it should be pointed out that tutes tend to be the most important part of the course. Lectures are often optional while missing a tutorial is frowned upon to the extent where your grade suffers if you miss more than one or two, work is marked by your tutor, any oral presentations are presented in and marked in your tutorial etc.
:Same at Oxford, but only for some subjects. I went to about 12 lectures in total during my 3 years of law at Oxford, but the only time I missed a tutorial was when I was actually in hospital. My scientist and mathematician contemporaries, though, went to nearly all their lectures and said they would not have been able to pass the courses without doing so.

message: I have removed an internal link to 'context', since there is currently no page that I can find discussing the relevant sense of that term. A new page could be created with a title such as Context (education) or the like. Alternately, a link could be added to Wiktionary (:wikt:context). Cnilep (talk) 01:28, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

message: How does a tutorial (for example at Oxford or Cambridge) differ from a coaching session at a crammer's establishment? Aren't both intended to get the best possible exam results for their pupils? It would be useful to have some comments on this, even if the formulation of the question is a shade provocative.
