What is a seminar in contrast to a regular class?

I think it's heavily based on class participation in a discussion/debate type setting. The seminars are really small and therefore provide for a comfortable environment in which one can easily express his or her views.

I think these seminars are not only a way to get to know the material, but also a better way to get to know your classmates. Anyone want to verify what I said?
