| Summary: | Effective teaching is often difficult to achieve because institutional frameworks and inertia - unique to the British educational system - inhibit teachers from being innovative.

Also, the tradition of lack of regular feedback and failures in the supervision and marking of undergraduate dissertations also lead to a less-than-ideal educational experience. Fortunately, some of these challenges can be overcome and provide a better learning experience for students. |
