History courses by Seminar
Seminars are small group learning sessions which give you the opportunity to discuss topics in some depth with the lecturer and your fellow students. They are often higher-level classes that focus on a specialised subject area. Seminars generally are participatory, lectures generally are not. Lectures are presentations to an audience, which may be followed by questions and answers. They are peer-based, lectures are authority-based.
