factual material in direct, it contains experience which inspires and it’s useful
for large groups. But it has some limitations such as: learning is difficult to
gauge and communication in one way.

provoke better discussion than a one person discussion, but the experts may
not be good speakers and subject may not be in logical order.

must have some ideas if group needs to be stimulated , it encourages full
participation because all ideas recorded so, one idea can spark off other

must have some ideas if group needs to be stimulated.

too many issues to have a focused discussion and discussion may not have
