Detailed Answer
Correct answer: (D)
Can convey large amounts of information to large groups of people
Many training programs prefer to use the lecture/formal-course method of instruction as it is possible to convey large amounts of information to large groups of people. However, such an approach often perpetuates the authority structure that many firms are moving away from. Furthermore, because the learning environment is not self-controlled, it may limit the transfer of useful material from the lecture to the actual skills and abilities on the job.
