• B. It often lacks follow-up and opportunities for application.
• C. It is not suitable for large groups.
• D. It provides many opportunities for students to collaborate.

Answer 1

Answer:

B. It often lacks follow-up and opportunities for application.

• Traditional "sit-and-get" lectures or workshops often fail because they don't provide opportunities for teachers to apply new knowledge, receive feedback, and integrate the learning into their daily practice.
