TUTORIAL
COURSES |
All Tutorials and Foreign
Language Tutorial Courses are normally offered in
each semester. Students are reminded that
Tutorial Courses make different demands on them
in order to extend their academic experience on a
more individual basis. The emphasis in Tutorials
is on argument, discussion and effective
communication and less upon the ransfer of
factual information. Considerably more reading,
research and individual reparation is required
from students for this intense form of teaching. |
