The lecture method is one of the oldest teaching methods where the teacher talks while students listen passively. It is commonly used in large classes in colleges and schools. The teacher controls the information and may use the blackboard. Lectures provide an overview of the topic and detailed information, allowing coverage of the syllabus quickly. However, student participation is minimal and learning is passive. A good lecture addresses a single theme, explains technical terms, and uses examples without exceeding 25 minutes. Planning must consider the audience, subject matter, time available, and the teacher's presentation skills.
