Lecture Quizzes & Trivia

A lecture is an oral presentation that presents information or teaches people about a certain subject, for example by a university or college teacher. Lectures can be about a variety of subjects, from human communication to linear algebra. They usually involve the use of multimedia presentations to enhance the presentation.

Lectures as a teaching method has been increasingly criticized; Mark Twain once said, “College is a place where a professor’s lecture notes go straight to the students’ lecture notes, without passing through the brains of either.” Do you agree? How much do you know about lectures and their various subjects? What are the advantages and disadvantages of lectures? Maybe you are familiar with famous professors and their lecture topics. Take these quizzes to test your knowledge!
