<p class="MsoNormal">Dear colleagues</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the middle of a PG Cert session about alternative learning spaces and teaching approaches a number of new students asked my colleague and I what exactly we meant by a lecture. They, I think, were surprised by our suggestions that you
 could do all sorts of things under the title of lecture which stopped it being a monologue with slides. I in turn was surprised by their surprise.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In your institution (and in your view too) how do you think colleagues are defining a lecture? Could you give me a one liner?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I can collate responses off piste and provide summary as per, if you would like to message me directly.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks so much and all best </p>
