Research on lecturing has been addressed to two main issues, the effectiveness of lecturing in comparison with other teaching methods and the differences between more effective and less effective lecturing. This article summarizes conclusions reached by earlier reviewers concerning the first issue. It then presents and discusses research on specific aspects of lecturing in relation to the second issue. These specific aspects concern content coverage, clarity, expressiveness and management. Research on syntheses of specific aspects of lecturing is also discussed. The article concludes with suggestions for future research. One suggestion is that more attention be given to the study of lecturing in field rather than experimental settings.
