[Ads-l] Power lecture

[Benjamin M Brainard]

I always just called those "lectures."  What was the distinguishing 'power' characteristic; length, or format?

Question from a student here at Wisconsin: Is the term ‘power lecture’ (basically full-hour lecture where students take notes, etc.) widely used?
