00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.650

2
00:00:07.650 --> 00:00:10.170
Sometimes I think there's
things that you might question

3
00:00:10.170 --> 00:00:13.630
in lectures or depending on
your own knowledge of it.

4
00:00:13.630 --> 00:00:16.590
And I think it's really
judging whether it's

5
00:00:16.590 --> 00:00:19.050
important to question then,
and whether it's appropriate

6
00:00:19.050 --> 00:00:19.549
or not.

7
00:00:19.549 --> 00:00:22.550
My own interest in the subject
brings up questions in my head

8
00:00:22.550 --> 00:00:24.260
and I just ask the lecturer.

9
00:00:24.260 --> 00:00:28.970
Having a good overview
of the subject

10
00:00:28.970 --> 00:00:32.240
before you go into the lecture
puts you at an advantage.

11
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:34.950
You can understand the
lecture much more clearly.

12
00:00:34.950 --> 00:00:36.790
With my lectures,
it's very easy to ask

13
00:00:36.790 --> 00:00:37.840
the lecturer's questions.

14
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:40.430
They are always open to ideas
and suggestions from me.

15
00:00:40.430 --> 00:00:43.480
I definitely challenge the
lecturer's views and thoughts.

16
00:00:43.480 --> 00:00:46.560
And as long as you can back
that up with your own reading

17
00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:49.385
and source material, they
will respect you for it.

18
00:00:49.385 --> 00:00:52.010
I've been in the situation where
I've felt a lecturer is wrong.

19
00:00:52.010 --> 00:00:54.810
And normally, you just question
the lecturer at the time.

20
00:00:54.810 --> 00:00:57.460
Sometimes they are wrong
and they'll say, oh, good,

21
00:00:57.460 --> 00:00:58.870
I'm glad someone's corrected me.

22
00:00:58.870 --> 00:01:03.710
Or sometimes they'll explain
to you why what you said

23
00:01:03.710 --> 00:01:06.670
is a good reason
that it's not right.

24
00:01:06.670 --> 00:01:07.920
And that's useful as well.

25
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:09.760
I normally have a
pre-session reading

26
00:01:09.760 --> 00:01:12.130
before I go into lecture,
so I'd read around

27
00:01:12.130 --> 00:01:14.865
the topic of which the
lecture is going to discuss,

28
00:01:14.865 --> 00:01:17.780
so I can come up with questions
before we go into the lecture

29
00:01:17.780 --> 00:01:20.500
and then gain as much as
I can from the lecture.

30
00:01:20.500 --> 00:01:24.080
Lecturers themselves are quite
good at awaking interest.

31
00:01:24.080 --> 00:01:27.950
And they're quite good
responding to the question

32
00:01:27.950 --> 00:01:30.960
as they have such a broad
knowledge of their field.

33
00:01:30.960 --> 00:01:33.450
I find it was very
easy to ask questions.

34
00:01:33.450 --> 00:01:34.825
Lecturers are always available.

35
00:01:34.825 --> 00:01:39.240
You don't go to university
to kind of blindly follow

36
00:01:39.240 --> 00:01:40.480
what your teacher says.

37
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:44.410
You go there to develop yourself
and develop your own interests.

38
00:01:44.410 --> 00:01:52.256
