Beschreibung
History of Lectures explores the long and fascinating journey of the lecture, from its ancient origins to its modern-day iterations in universities worldwide. The book reveals how this method of knowledge transmission has evolved over centuries, influenced by socio-political factors and pedagogical innovations. Intriguingly, the lecture's roots can be traced back to the public squares of ancient Greece, highlighting its enduring role in intellectual discourse and educational theory. It also examines how the format has adapted through time, especially with the rise of digital technologies and hybrid learning models. The book argues that lectures, despite criticisms, remain a valuable tool for intellectual engagement. It examines the lecture's evolution and highlights its capacity to adapt to changing pedagogical needs. History of Lectures is structured in three key sections, starting with the pre-university lecture, then the development of university lectures from the medieval period to the 20th century, and finally, the modern lecture in the context of digital technologies. This historical analysis offers practical applications for educators seeking to enhance their teaching skills and understand the historical context of modern educational institutions.
