220 students were asked if their lessons started on time. The majority of students said "yes".
However, a large number of learners said "The lecturer may turn up on time, but sometimes the lesson does not start for 15 - 20 minutes - it's just lots of explanation and talk about 'stuff'. We feel like the lesson starts when we actually get asked to DO something".
So advice from the students: "Make us do something, anything, in the first 5 minutes - then we consider the lesson to have started! We then switch on and are ready to learn, listen and engage."
