acroamatic

1. (rare, chiefly archaic) Of or pertaining to hearing.Examples: "Prate they not cataracts of insensible noise, / That with obstreperous cadence cracks the organs / Acroamatick, till the deaf auditor / Admires the words he heares not?"; "I should prefer, therefore, to call the former acroamatic, or audible (discursive) proofs, because they can be carried out by words only (the object in thought), rather than demonstrations, which, as the very term implies, depend on the intuition of the object."; "The idea that the first thought, as an internal event, is always also dialogical, that is, possesses a communicative quality in itself, is connected to its acroamatic origin."archaicrare

2. (education) Based on lectures or exposition by monologue.Examples: "Coordinate term: erotematic"; "Up to that time the “acroamatic” method had been used in which the catechist gave a lecture, and the children were only listeners (ἀκροᾶσθαι)."; "[Questions’] employment here does not mark a shift from the acroamatic (lecture-based) to the erotematic (interrogatory) method, for the answers are not known."
